Yep, that's where I saw it most recently.  I think Gambitsoft also has it.

The first time I saw Now, it was on a floppy that I bought at a recycled
wsoftware store.  I went there because I needed a copy of pkzip.exe, and I
didn't have an internet connection so I had to find a way to get a copy.  My
computer had a copy of pkunzip on it when I bought it, but not pkzip.  Turns out
there was already an old computer in the house with pkzip on it (D'oh!), but
nobody knew about it, so I could have saved about 45 miles of driving, but I did
find a cool old Chess program.
