Re: Maybe Windows 3.1 was a sweet spot?
I'm of the opinion that there is a much better chance that a Windows 3.1 binary will run than a huge number of applications written for versions of Windows since then.
Were it not for the fact that Windows 3.1 binaries had to be written to run on Intel's 16-bit segmented architecture you might be right.
Methinks the opportunities for creating bugs that were presented by that architecture were so numerous that anything written for any 32-bit version of Windows has a much better chance of working.
... or were you talking about NT 3.1? If you were you have a point.
