Agreed.  Hover is not a good representation of how well Win95 
handles the games.  A GOOD representation is Pitfall:  The 
Mayan Adventure.  It runs SUBERBLY on my my p-90 with s3 video 
accelerator.   This is a great example of how well the Win95 
designed games run.

Now, getting to DOS games, it's still a good idea not to be 
running windows.  Mech Warrior II didn't run so hot when 
running in 95.
