I know you want to show that M$ is great, but Win 95 just isn't. It's a crappy OS with solid marketing strategy that corners the market. I wave my white flag to Win NT, but if you don't believe me, just ask the M$ engineers what Windows 95 really is. It's an IMPROVED Win 3.11 on MS-DOS shell with 32-bit extensions. I have a Windows NT workstation at work, a PowerMac with DOS Compatibility (Windows 95) at home, a SunSparc Station at home, and I *HATE* Windows 95. Windows NT is far superior, but my MacOS 8 is better then Win NT IMHO, but then again, NT has its advantages over MacOS.
