Anyone can see that Ziff-Davis'survey about win 95 is extremelly tendentious, they didn't 
let us write exactly what we think about win95 and all it's problems comparing to other 
system like OS/2.

Like always, it seens that Ziff-Davis is looking for a new way of pleasing Microsoft instead 
of showing the real advantages of using a more stable operating system other than WIN95.

And I had a look at their P6 reviews.  They mentioned countless times
that P6 is optimised for 32-bit codes and for 16-bit is only as fast as
the Pentium, and that you will need Windoze-NoThanks to take advantage
of the processor.  Only once did they mention OS/2 is also a 32-bit
system.
