In it MICROSOFT explains that the ENTIRE operating system is 16-bit for compatibility and it would be impossible to get good Windows 3.1 compatibility without this. Read it, then act like you know something. As far as applications running under Windows 95 vs. OS/2. Microsoft announced last week they have tested 2600 Windows 3.1 applications. Of that somewhere around 800 have problems with Windows 95 and of those 800, 200 do not even work. IBM has tested on the order of 25,000 applications (I admit I don't know exactly the #), of those, you can read the list of applications that do not work at all on a single piece of paper (like 10 or 20).
