Home users needing to run 16-bit software I would imagine is a fairly
tiny segment of the market. And there's always VirtualBox.
1) Who says that home users are the only ones using the Home
Edition? "Home Edition" is only a name. The laptop that I purchased
came with the Home Edition. It can run a lot of business software
including Visual FoxPro.
2) Microsoft broke 16-bit software on 64-bit Windows 7. Why
couldn't they have just kept the functionality?
