There are CD images of OS/2 Warp 3, Warp 4, and Smartsuite on archive.org. You will also need to get the boot floppies because I’m pretty sure even the Warp 4 CD wasn’t bootable. I don’t recall it putting up any fight installing on Pentium-class hardware, as long as the motherboard had an Intel chipset on it. I think you have to load some device drivers to get Pentium II-class hardware to run it. It’s been 20 years since I did it last so I don’t recall all the details anymore.

i would love to get OS/2 and Smartsuite on a 90s pc, any suggestions

It’s been 30 years since I used it but it wasn’t any worse than the Win95 version as I recall. I don’t recall ever using Clarisworks so I can’t comment on that.

As you note, IBM acquired Lotus a few months later. The litigation continued under IBM’s watch with a last-ditch appeal to the Supreme Court. Oral arguments were heard in January 1996. A few days later, the Court announced they were evenly divided 4-4, which meant the First Circuit’s decision stood. (One justice was recused, likely because he owned stock in one of the companies involved.)
