    TM> I hear Warp 4 has Win 3.x installed in it. ;)    
      
   I use a special VM that allows me to run Win 3.x programs natively in 64-bit   
   Windows 10. It's called "otvdm".   
      
   http://www.columbia.edu/~em36/otvdm.html   
      
   "A programmer who calls himself or herself otya128 has adapted the Wine ("Wine   
   Is Not an Emulator") software into a system called winevdm (also otvdm) so   
   that old Windows programs (including installation programs) can run in 64-bit   
   Windows as if they were ordinary modern Windows programs. With this system   
   installed, you can simply double-click on these old Windows programs and   
   launch them in the same way that you launch modern Windows programs. Under   
   this system, these old programs can open files in the same way that modern   
   Windows applications do, and many (but not all) applications that were   
   designed to send data to a printer can print to any Windows printer."   
      
   I've run several Win16 programs nicely with otvdm.   
      
   ArcaOS not only has Win 3.1 built-in but has a lot of Linux commands built   
   into it also ... something Windows still doesn't have and WSL doesn't count.
