Where to CP/M

I've seen a few posts regarding CP/M-86. Is there an official copy available somewhere? I've seen a few for d/l but they come with no docs and I'm not sure if its the real thing you would once get at a store, or maybe some incomplete tossup of files. Sorry if this sounds like I'm putting people's files down - I'm not - I just don't know, that's all.

I think it has been released as freeware or open source, something like that. I can't recall the address but you should be able to find it on Google. There are plenty of docs and other information available as well.
If you want the real package with all the documents and things search eBay. Sometimes you can find it on there really cheap.
Keep in mind this is a pre-DOS operating system so you probably won't be able to do much with it. Still interesting though; I used to have it on an XT but never learned to use it.
