why, David, will most current win 95 users buy another horse (win 98) when the current horse their riding (win 95) works fine? I reckon that plenty will switch but fewer than last time. Win95 was huge advance in interface over Win3.1 yet in my department here Win3.1 is still in primary use (alongside Unix). The afficionados might switch to Win 98 faster but I reckon your average user won't until they find applications that require Win98 only. On the Mac side I'm still using Mac OS 7.5.5 and haven't switched to 8. I just can't see that much of an advance that it's worth the hassle. I reckon Win98 will be like Mac OS 7.5.5 to Mac OS 8.
