Quote: Originally posted by Project2501 Yes, he is correctly implying that Windows is based on dos, Windows XP(32bit) still carries some code from the good old 16bit dos days, so it really was time to do some rewriting, Windows XP 64 on the other…

Quote: Originally posted by Placebo I thought I remembered hearing something about there needing to be some kind of relatively lightweight emulation to run XP programs, could be wrong. WinFS is also new. If that indeed is being shipped with Vi…
