There was sort-of a 16-bit revolution--it wasn't connected to the 8-bit one. The 68k systems were 16-bit hardware with all new/different operating systems. It was much later we got 68020 32-bit hardware. The IBM PC/AT was 16-bit hardware following the 8-bit 8088 PC. That got us to DOS/16M and Windows/286 and OS/2 v1.3 (good times). On the fun side we got the 16-bit wave of consoles. It was all very semi-business though--I really missed the 8-bit days all through this period. The best times were probably on the Amiga in EU. |
