"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.

"One man, no man"

Building an Operating System - it's a huge project. it's like building a real City (build houses, dig flowers garden, etc). Thousands of people are going this in the city.

Conclusion: Standalone developer is unable to create something. Always join a group, interact with other developers. Moreover, interace with all other "characters" (managers, resellers, Active users, ..)
