I tried to run Soldier of Fortune for Linux (of Loki fame) and it isnt possible due to 32/62bit compatibility issues. I cant imagine running 16bit software...

Linux doesn't have 16-bit software.

Does that have any interesting 16-bit software you might want to run on Linux?

Well, it's at least interesting enough to exist, beyond that I couldn't say. Bit subjective of a goal post don't you think?
