Im using the final beta version of win95 and it sure as hell kicks the
shit out of os2. I had 22 hours online with IBM trying to get the shit
installed because IBM  was in such a fucking hurry to beat win95 they
did'nt bother to take all the fucking bugs out of the piece of shit. I
used it exactly 30 days It would not run my cdrom nor would it run 75%
of my software so i gave it away and the person i gave it to gave it
back. win95 on the other hand is working with every piece of software
that i have and some i just installed. It runs all my dos software and
has great multitasking. i ran 4 mpeg movie files with sound at the same
time along with winprobe and faxworks with voice on a machine with
8megs of ram. they worked beautifully. now that I have it I will never
change it win 3.11 will never compare with win95
