Although there is no longer an official distribution of OpenWatcom as a collection of .zip archives after OpenWatcom 1.3, you can download OW 1.7a (1.7.1), and previous releases, as multiple zip files from ibiblio. These archives are prepared by Arkady Belousov, and placed on ibiblio by Jim Hall. Here you will find archives with the same layout as the OW 1.3 distribution, including the files license.txt, readme.txt (short introduction) and descript.ion (archives description file, compatible with FAR Manager, NDOS and 4DOS)." You can find it at http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/micro/pc-stuff/freedos/files/devel/c/openwatcom/1.7.1/
