windows 3.1 and dos are examples of 16 bit Oses.
Windows98 is an example of 32 bit os and Solaris and The new windows (longhorn) are examples of 64 bit oses.

could that be why if you try to emulate console games (are ps2/xbox 32 or 64?) on a computer they don't run as well?
edit:hmm, forget about that question. i didn't think N64=ninteno64, which is a console. forgive my ignorance

Kintaro:
XBox emulators could go really well if you made a good vm with kernel hooks (like vmware) because the xbox has a intel cpu.
The gamecube, n64, ps/2 will run ok on the more powerful systems.

Binary:
(here is a 4 bit binary number which is 16 in decimal under it are the decimal numbers)
1111
8421
and 8+4+2+1=16
if the binary number was
0001
8421
0+1=1
or
0101
8421
4+1=5
here is a 16 bit number:
0000000010000000
That is 128 in decimal.
