Outdated ZDOS and CP/M

     I have been using the very ancient versions of ZDOS and CP/M that came
with my Z-100 back in 1983.  Since I have been running very simple applications
at home, this has not been a problem.  Now that I am trying to expand the
functionality of the machine, I find that most of the disks that I borrow
from friends are not even compatible with the disk file structure under the
old operating systems (320K vs. 360K is part of the problem I think).  
I understand that there are disk utilities that can deal with the 320-360
problem, but I also need simply to update the old DOS.

     Could someone please bring me up-to-date by sending me either some 
relevant information or the name and address of an appropriate distributor
or both?  

     Thanks for your help.
