Delphi 2.0 only for Win95/Nt Apps

While there are several new features to 2.0 (data-modules, combo-boxes in
grids, etc) to Delphi 2.0, Borland tech support confirmed that it only
works with 32-bit operating systems. It DOES come with a 16-bit compile,
but only as Delphi 1.0.
Therefore the new features of 2.0 are not available in 1.0!

I asked the rep. "Then there is no reason to upgrade unless you will be
going to Win95 or WinNt?" To which he agreed!

Correction:
As a free lance developer you have clients using WIN95 or NT and some
using 3.x. Delphi 2.0 lets you COMPILE for either. However if you
compile for 3.x you don't have the enhancements of 2.0. That's what he
meant and that's what it is.

Can you compile 32bit and run the apps on 3.x with win32s ?
