subject: Windows XP Mode ?

I have a question regarding Windows 7.
 
I didn't realize that it was that much different that XP "under the hood."
However, I have been reading some about "XP mode" and how it allows you to
"continue to run older business software" written for XP.
 
So, is any software that is not a "Windows 7 version" going to require this
XP mode?
 
I have some games, like Simcity 2000 & Simcity 3.  They were actually
written for Windows 9xm and run fine under XP.  If I were trying to install
these on a Windows 7 machine, would I need XP mode installed/enabled to do it?
 
Thanks!
Mike
