I can easily run old x86 Linux binaries on ARM, and vice versa, automatically with binfmt_misc. User-mode emulation allows you to run x86 Windows binaries on ARM WINE, as well.
And Microsoft fully supports running x86 applications on ARM Windows[1], as well.

- hedora 5y agoMy raspberry pi boots Windows 3.1 just fine (through dosbox). It's more likely to run a random dos / win 3.1 program than my iPhone is to run a random piece of old iOS software. Put another way, the raspberry pi runs all but two of the games I played in that era. I can think of 6 iOS games that no longer run, and I played at least 10x as many games on DOS as iOS. My experience with productivity software has been similar.
