Well, I do not know the final relase of Win95, but I tried a beta (summer this year) and I did not spend more than 15 min to have the first error. I don't know the terms in english, but something like "program stopped, press ok to chancel programm". And I was just opening and closing some Windows (Might have been a wrong one). So don't say commercial OS's have more stability.
