In addition to what others have said here, if you buy Win7 Professional or
Ultimate, you'll also have the option to run Windows VPC and XP Mode if your
new computer supports hardware virtualization. This gives you a fully
integrated Windows XP virtual machine that you can run inside Windows 7 and
that should run even your 16-bit applications.
