   Google MCA Mafia for microchannel support, and the Hobbes archives 
are still around.

   I have v4.0 running on a P-III with ATA-100, 10/100mb ethernet, and 
an AGP ATI Rage Pro running at 1280x1024x24 with the SciTech Display 
Doctor driver.

   For OS/2 v3 and previous, as far as I can tell any drivers/hardware 
support that existed then are still available, but that's still a pretty 
narrow field.
