Screaming and crying will not help it, believe me.
There will be a maximum of two (read: TWO) OS's between Win95 and WinNT 4.0
(or whatever it will be called). Sources: various german computer mags like
c't.
Win95 is just there because there has to be an advancement from Win3.11 to
something new.
It is also there to force the people to upgrade their apps to 32 bit versions
which will then run better on WinNT.
The people will also enhance their hardware to keep Win95 running -> WinNT
deserves it.
At least Win95 is just there to allow Bill Gates and the hardware industry to
earn much more money.
Conclusion: I will NEVER buy Win95 but I will give WinNT a try here at work.
In private I will NEVER buy anything from MicroSoft and I will never buy a PC.
Ok?
