No, I have another suggestion. Get Windows 95, then get
the book by Andrew Schulman. Get the one with a CD. On
that CD there are tools that allows you to look into the
things I adress above. See for your selfe. Don't trust
a jerk who is using two paragraphs, and gives NO info
or try in NO WAY to refute what I say.

Just for the record - I use OS/2, NT and Linux, not in
that order always. I like them all. Compared to any of
them, technically, Windows 95 is a piece of junk.
