I though I could stay out of this debate but...

>From the Windows 95 Resource Kit on the build 445 CD-ROM:

Application Support/
 Technical notes on application support/
  Support for MS-DOS Based applications:

   "As with Windows 3.1, each MS-DOS - base application runs in its own
   DOS virtual machine (VM), which allows multiple 8086-compatible sessions
   to run on the CPU, which in turn allows existing MS-DOS - based 
   applications to run preemptively with the rest of the system."
