<<I have heard that Windows 95 is not backward compatible with w3.1 
programs.  Is this true?  Or is this a scaly lie from the warp types?  I 
would hate to lose the use of some of my great old windows games...>>

It's a scaly lie. Win95 runs every Win3 app I have, with the exception of
disk utilities that don't understand 32-bit disk access. Runs every game I
have, too, DOS or Windows.
