It's pretty amazing that you got OS/2 Warp 3 to work under VMware WS 5.5.1. Any chance you could send a bit more information for the memories of a great OS that was abandoned by IBM?

Regardless, I remember the outrage when VMware removed even experimental support for OS/2. The experimental support did seem to work as far back as I can remember - but I think it was WS 2.x or perhaps 3.x. This was when there was no forum - only email lists. The reasons given were the amount of programming time vs the economic return. I've thrown out my Warp diskettees and CD-ROM. I had a fair amount of softtware for it, even the original start (roots) of Object Desktop. The boot manager worked great and I installed 3 or perhaps even 4 OS's on a machine. But its not worth my time (even if I still had the software) and money to buy the M$ version of its virtualized software.
