-------Goddamn you guys are stupider than i thought. Read my original
post, and you would see that i said "i bet 10 or 20 bux that Windows 95
will come out in 95". NO PLACE DID I MENTION THE ORIGINAL RELEASE
DATE. "Windows 95 will come out in 95" means just that, got it? Damn,
you ppl are stupid.
And to all ppl who did reply to my wager, lets have the wording say
"Windows 95 will be released in 1995 as a stable platform." Whether or
not MS releases Win95 v1.01 or not by Dec. 31 does not matter in the
wager, by patches or upgrades or whatever. WHY? because they already
have made it clear that additions will be shipped within a few months
after Aug. 24. Yes, it sounds like a cop-out on MS's part (and I'll
admit that is partially is), BUT Win95 will be stable by Dec. 31.
And who determines the stability of a product anyway? Also, how?
