"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, ..)

Unique OS/2 User Interface

OS/2 is diffrent from other systems thanks to unique User Interface.

"SVISTA a-la Vista"

We have released SVISTA/2 virtual machine in 2004,

Eugene Gorbunoff have combined "Serenity Virtual Station" to spanish "Vista".

2004, 2005, there were several announcements on all major computer web-sites.
later Microsoft released OS named Vista

What application to develop for OS/2?

It's clear that we need QR-code library so other developers can create some Solutions based on OS/2.

LANGE will give in the future..

In the future, you will switch language of OS immediately. (Because all apps based on LANGE have all national resources in bundle)

Device drivers in OS/2

Major part of OS/2 drivers are universal. Ethernet drivers are full-featured, Video: VESA with acceleration, Audio - based on linux ALSA.

You can't stop time flow..

When UEFI and other barriers appeared, we said: it's not important what is changing in the computers. You can always install OS/2 to Used Core 2 Duo PC.

Time goes and we see that OS/2 must support new models of computers because old generations are not available. don't fit the requirements.

How the User Interface of OS/2 is changing?

Changes of eComStation user interface - history

ArcaOS 5.1.1 - DOS works again

DOS virtual machine works again (it was working on Core 2 Duo, and didn't for i5). Install ArcaOS in UEFI mode to use DOS VM.

Web-browser is the source of life

Currently we don't have good web-browser in OS/2.

Wizard (Russia)

Wizard is designing for OS/2 since 2004.

Roderick Klein (Netherlands)

If you search the word "monk" in the vocabulary - you will see Roderick's photo as example.

Roderick Klein was interacting with all developers while working on eComStation. He was working in 24/7 mode during several years.

Stream: ArcaOS 5 - ghost of OS/2

Youtube video, russian language

(not translated)

Main idea: during two hours people are discussing OS/2 without knowing what is it.

Resolving troubles with TCP/IP

Frequently Asked Questions and Answers about OS/2, Checking TCP/IP settings

Every ArcaOS and eComStation is equipped with SQLlite library. You can immediately create and modify a Database.
