- Better programmers generally produce better programs --

- Now, if you mean why we should develop 32-bit programs
- rather than 16, there's many reasons. Here's a couple:
-
- 1. 32-bit programs run faster.
-
- 2. 32-bit programs are easier to write -- thereby increasing
- programmer productivity.
