    And the debate about Win 95 still goes on. Scroll down and read some of the replies. :-D

    I remember the olde DOS days, then migrating through most of the Windows versions ,from W95, to the current Windows 7.

    As a matter of fact I am still using one W95 program, on W7, to screenprint info. It was FREE then, but now is not. :cry

    What memories do you have?

    reinstalling it like 10000000 times whenever anything went awry, although my tinkering caused most of the problems. :major

    I recently tried running it and win me on in virtual box, but was stifled by it. apparantly the faster processors these days, just move 95/98/me too fast. you need some software to throttle down the processor, but then i was just bored with it :-D
