I'm not being flippant here but I doubt
there isn't an application out there now
that couldn't benefit from an upgrade to
the world of Windows.

Data entry programs suffer a loss of speed, but this just makes the
programmer's job more difficult to minimize it.

I had a customer whose main complaint was that it took his operators
much longer to enter tax form information in Windoze, vs. the compiled
VB code running in NTVDM I had made for him... But he is well and
truly on Windoze now, electronic filing took care of that.
