Default Win98 again!

I recently inherited an almost new Win7 (64 bit) computer so I replaced
the ten year old machine that my wife an I share. (We each have our own
private machines.)
To my disappointment , my favorite game...a very old 16 bit version of
Tetris did not run...not even using win95 compatibility.

I ended up install win98 in a virtual machine and my old game runs
great. Using full screen it's indistinguishable from running win98
natively on a P-III. So...Win98 lives on!
