There are 32 bit variants of Win 7 and 8, if you have a pressing need

guess) because it makes no sense to emulate and have to support an
entire 16-bit virtual environment when there is probably very little
customer need for 16 bit apps.
Given the choices:
1) You can spend money for on a system that will not do what you
want, and you will have to use other software to get back to where you were.
2) You can keep your existing system.
Which would you go for?
Maybe this thread should be retitled "Our Love Affair with the
OS Churn is Over". That would be fitting for me, if not others.
