This has been stated before but here goes again! The list that Microsoft has is NOT a list of 200+ applications that WON'T run on WIN95 but a list of 2500+ applications that WILL. I'm positive of that because I downloaded the list from their web site and will gladly E-Mail you and anyone else a copy of this list if you ask. Please get your facts straight! ==========Ka On Lee, 8/3/95========== > > From your comments I'll bet you don't know that Windows 95 > > is 16-bit. > ONLY some part's of it are 16 bit, pretty much to maintain compatibility > with the TON of Windows 3.0, 3.1, and DOS software out on the market. WIN95 > is more compatibile with windows & Dos programs then OS/2 WARP is anyways Don't count on it. Ask Microsoft about their list 200+ Win16 apps that don't work under Win95. It can't run my friend's Turbo C++ 3.0 unless reboot to MS-DOS mode. It's just a text mode DOS program, no sound, no graphic, no DOS extender.
