🔗

Coderjoe |
what do you mean by support? guest-side drivers? |
01:30
🔗

Coderjoe |
it could be that they don't see any reason to continue to put money into maintaining the drivers, as they don't think anybody is using them |
01:31
🔗
|
BlueMax |
well I mean VirtualBox barely supports Windows 98 in general and VMware are dropping official support, it's just a question of how we can run legacy W9x applications without resorting to hardware which will probably be gone in a few more years |
