Why must OS/2 support another OSs applications? Just look for OS/2
equivalents. I'm quite comfortable with my suite of OS/2 applications,
and find that I don't require Windoze for anything except for my banking
security software (proprietary Win32 app). I'll be switching banks
shortly, to one that utilizes browser security rather than a 3rd party
application.
