Not to constantly pick on you Mark, but Win95 really does not
come close. I would agree about Win3/DOS support but that is about it.
My experience with  Win95 was on a Pentium90 with 16 MB and 
Warp on a 486dx30 with 8 megs was right up there with it.
I agree totally with Mr Dahl. When Microsoft puts out
the final product, then maybe it will be as good of a product
[ or beter than ] OS/2 Warp, but for now it is just a [ IMHO a very bad ]
beta.
