Hello everyone. I don't know why everyone is comparing Win95 to the hunk of poorly-designed crap known as the Mac! First off, both are crap, don't waste hard earned $$$ on either. Second, if you want to argue, the Mac sys 7.5 NEVER had preemptive multitasking (system allots time). It has a crap-form where an app grabs as much time as it wants, and gives it back when it's done. This is Win3.1, people! This is a TASK-SWITCHER. You want real multitasking? The mac won't do it. Get OS/2, UNIX, or just about anything decent. Of course, if you want excellence, get an amiga. BTW: What caused the confusion about whether system 7.5 has everything a GOOD machine has is that it has 32-bit addressing and some degree of plug&play (which is no more real than Micorsoft's, since ALL SCSI peripherals are P&P, and MS's only works with major brand name parts) -- "Who'll ever need more than 640K of RAM?" -Bill Gates NPJ ----> On Amiga AutoPilot 1.80
