Here we have two people with reading comprehension deficits of one kind or
another.  They obviously cannot tell when somebody is asking a genuine
question, as I was doing.  Instead of trying to directly answer my
question about Win95 capabilities with a detailed explanation that would
have clarified my knowledge and earned my respect (I guess I was under the
mistaken assumption that these newsgroups were places were we could
exchange information in a more or less civil manner -- yes, I _can_ engage
in civil debate with people whom I disagree with) they have chosen to post
obnoxious, non-informative responses (aka. flames).  Now, what has
changed: 

1) my (and others') knowledge about Win95 capabilities?  Nope.
2) my sense of civility toward these two individuals?  Yep; I now feel 
they are inconsiderate assholes.
