Can you get your operating system fixed when you need it?
Linux - the supportable operating system.
Willows TWIN emulation works well for 16-bit programs, doesn't work at
all for 32. If you have the source for the MS windows program, even a
32-bit one, you can re-compile the application on Linux with a Willows
library so that it is a native X program, that works a lot better than
emulation.
