I Guess no matter how many times people post to prove that Win95 does NOT
run on top of DOS someone keeps repeating that it does. Win95 does not need
config.sys or autoexec.bat. You can delete these if you want and everything
works fine but you can't run DOS programs. They are useful files though.
When you push F8 it does NOT break into Command.Com. It gives you a menu of
choices of how to load Windows or boot to DOS if you want to. Do you even
know what Command.Com is? It's the DOS command line shell. It has nothing
to do with Windows.
None of the other stuff you mentioned is true either but I'm not going to
waste my time. Sorry to say but "half your friends and programmers" don't
know what they are talking about (if they even exist).One thing I never do
is criticize the Mac because I haven't used it enough to really know. You
obviously know nothing about Windows except some phony inaccurate
information you heard or read somewhere so you should keep your mouth shut.
Maybe I'm being too hard on you. I get the impression you are just a kid.
If so well, you've got a lot to learn. Keep an open mind.
