'''Windows 2.0''' is the second major version of [[Microsoft Windows]]. It was the first version to introduce support for enhanced features found in Intel's i386 processors. To differentiate it between the 8086-compatible version of Windows 2.x, the i386 version was sold and marketed separately under the "Windows/386" label. Two revisions of Windows 2.x exist, the original revision (2.0x) in generic 8086 and i386 variants, and a second revision (2.1x) that introduced 286 and i386-specific variants, marketed as "Windows/286" and "Windows/386" respectively. | '''Windows 2.0''' is the second major version of [[Microsoft Windows]].
