Fear the ninjaing ;)
Honestly, I know a fair number of businesses (at least two) that got bit by dropping 16-bit app support. Windows NT on Alpha supported emulation of 16/32-bit Intel PE binaries with FX!32, and I know WINE was able to get 16-bit apps emulated as well.
I'll never understand why Microsoft didn't implement an actual emulator, especially if they had code for one. (I know the old V8086 solution can't be used under long mode. At least unless you reset one processor core from LM->back to PM, but that's overkill)
