Yeh right Bob.  You are making a joke of this.  I'll forward this to MS to 
see if anyone can copy Windows '95 without a license.  Windows '95 isn't 
even a product much less something MS would give to someone else.  Don't 
even try to tell me that they reverse engineered this either.  Sorry, but I 
am way too skeptical about this one.  This would be big news and this is 
the first I have heard of it.  I think that it is just rumor and no truth.  
To be sure, I will forward it to an MS official.
