No.  I've recycled the old ArcaOS machine.  No more.  It's either MBSE or I
shut down.  After realizing how much it'd cost me to keep ArcaOS current and
the realization that it will never be 64-bit, that's why I gave up on it.  I
do have my ArcaOS PE 5.0.3 (the version I purchased) install in a VM though. 
This workstation cannot do virtualization but when I can get a computer that
will, I have that, OS/2 Warp 4.52, eCS 1.2MR, and eCS 2.0 available as VMs.

RW> LOL.  Sorry.  But I could not resist :) 

The last time I switched from MBSE back to OS/2 was because I was stupid and
did not realize I broke my own doors ... and didn't figure out the problem
until much later.

I have successfully compiled one of my doors for DOS, OS/2, 32- and 64-bit
Windows and 64-bit Linux using a highly modified version of Manndoor but I
will probably be forking that into my own doorkit eventually.

Right now I have other issues to worry about.  When things calm down a bit
and I can set up a much more comfortable "operating position", I will start
working on my doors again in earnest as well as getting out all of my
utilities as open source.
