1.2. What is Windows 95?

   Microsoft's newest "low end" operating system for Intel based
   computers. In my opinion, they designed it to wean DOS users off that
   20 year old operating system and into some current stuff. It replaces
   DOS and previous versions of Windows entirely.
   
   In addition to completely re-working the user interface, Win95 brings
   over large amounts of Windows NT technology, allowing app writers to
   write for both operating systems. One of Microsoft's requirements for
   Designed for Windows 95 products is that the product must also run
   on Windows NT Workstation.
   
   It also (supposedly) helps you manage your hardware, your software,
   your time, etc better. It's also supposed to make you rich, good
   looking, sexually irresistible, and permanently wonderful. heh heh...
