How can I buy SQL 6.5?

We have an old SQL 6.5 .DAT backup that we want to load to SQL 2000. As far
as I can see we cannot upload the file directly, we must first restore to
SQL6.5 and then upgrade the DB to SQL2000.
Does anybody know how or where I can buy/licence SQL6.5?
Thanks,
Simon
If you have an MSDN Universal subscription, you can pull it down from Visual
Studio 6.
