Windows 7 still does this with Pandora in Chrome when loading a new tab. Oh, wait, the world moved on from 32-bit Windows 7? Let me tell my boss...


Your boss probably is doing what we are doing 7 -> 10, although why the heck you are on 32-bit is a little odd. I think we gave away all our 32-bit machines to students.


32-bit can still run Win16 code. 64-bit can't because of conflicting CPU modes. Could be they have some aging inhouse software they just can't replace...


You know, COBOL programs are easier to run on modern machines than a lot of Win16 programs. I could only imagine that utter vile feeling of seeing a Win16 program for a modern Windows programmer.
