Does anyone even sell OS/2 licenses anymore?  OS/2 is old software and has been replaced by newer things (such as ArcaOS, which is basically a newer version of OS/2 since IBM transferred ownership).  So if you want to be legit with it, I'd think your only options would be to buy ArcaOS and run it on supported hardware, or perhaps buy a used copy of OS/2 if that's what you really want.  If you use OS/2 though, any money you pay for it probably isn't going to go to the original developers.
