   I don't have any real hardware to run OS/2, but I've discovered it   
   virtualizes pretty well. I have Warp 4 in a VM on my Macintosh, and on my PC   
   I have eComStation virtualized. They both work great. It's fun running a   
   native OS/2 BBS package, with OS/2 native mailer/tossers. Seems just as good   
   as any software out there now.   
      
   I'll definitely take you up on the config.sys tricks!
