I've still got a 16 bit motherboard here, it's all but useless, it's
just sitting on the pile of "what can I do with it?" things.  Every now

*require* 32 bit hardware, these days.  You can't even start an
installation on it.  So a lot of old stuff has already been abandoned
by everyday users, because they had to.

Linux never ran on 16-bit CPUs, The minimum was a 386.
Now, most distros require 64-bit CPUs.
