"Protection from Virtual Machines"

The goal to create Virtual Machines always the same: Large OS goes absorb small/old OSes.

You remember what happened in 2008 (iMac/Intel, Parallels), when thousands of OS/2 users were wahsed aways from OS/2 city.

Conclusion: All official OS/2 web-sites, the developer of OS/2 *must* block the topic of Virtual Machines. Don't support the development, don't distribute the information. Yes, the topic of VM is interesting for some users but VM kill OS/2 quickly.

If you are writing documentation for your application then we recommend: create html files and publish at the homepage of your product. So it is indexed, so you can show it to other people, discuss the document in real mode.

don't generate inf files.
