I managed to image my 2002 laptop as file for a VM. So it runs as a VM on my latest Laptop and Workstation running Linux.
My server has setup files / settings in text / scripts for various applications on various OS and backups of the original downloaded programs where possible.
Some programs might only be used once in a few years and need a VM with old OS so as to convert an old MS Works, Paint Shop Pro 5 or 7, ancient DTP file etc.
I should figure how to setup a Win98 VM for old DOS/Win3.x/Win9x programs that don't work either on DOSBox or WinXP VM.
