What is Windows 95?
Microsoft’s newest “low end” operating system for Intel based computers. In my opinion, they designed it to wean DOS users off that 20 year old operating system and into some current stuff. It replaces DOS and previous versions of Windows entirely. In addition to completely re-working the user interface, Win95 brings over large amounts of Windows NT technology, allowing app writers to write for both operating systems. One of Microsoft’s requirements for Designed for Windows 95 products is that the product must also run on Windows NT Workstation 3.51. It also (supposedly) helps you manage your hardware, your software, your time, etc better. It’s also supposed to make you rich, good looking, sexually irresistible, and permanently wonderful. Heh heh… (Regarding this, there’s supposedly a law suit in progress against MS’s over-advertising of Win95.
