Last time I looked they did not support OS/2. Have you tried getting a new release of OS/2 for the new hardware?

by the way:
does anybody know, if it is possible to run OS/2 with VMWare? Is anybody doing this? I have some OS/2 "legacy" applications, but OS/2 doesn't run on new hardware, so I have to keep my old boxes. But if OS/2 would run with VMWare, I could run it without problems on brand new hardware.
Kind regards

Actually, this is not entirely correct either, but it does point at a fairly big limitation in VMWare (and x86 capability for being virtualized)... VMWare actually can run more OSes (and versions of OSes) than those 'supported' by VMWare. E.g. I had Plan9 running (in text mode, due to not having the specs for the video card VMWare emulates) on VMWare years ago, and now Bell Labs has is running with GUI. But it is not at all supported by VMWare, and VMWare does not contain any code that is customized to make it possible.
