    There are several downloads for OS/2 Warp 4.52 on archive.org, e.g.:

    https://archive.org/details/IBMOS2WarpServerForEBusiness https://archive.org/details/VMOS2Warp4.52 https://archive.org/details/os2softwarecollection

    I did install the version from the first link in QEMU, but there is some error when it boots. I didn't try to fix it, because I don't think QEMU is the best option. I was just a quick test and the next time I will install it in VirtualBox. Installation worked fine though (with GUI).

    Internet Archive has it available for download. If you want a more up-to-date version of it...you can get it from: https://www.arcanoae.com/arcaos/. This
    is $129 (Personal Edition)/$229 (Business Edition) for 5.0.4 with updated drivers & such. I got the personal edition...along with a year of support for $58. Even got a Lenovo ThinkCentre which was used for a business with Windows 7 Embedded on it for $50 from Ebay.

    Am having troubles getting it installed on the ThinkCentre...but will be working on it & resolving the issues over time. Having run Warp 25 years ago...was expecting issues.
