Windows 95 won everybody's heart because it was a superb product. --- Pffft. - Oh please. It wasn't that many years ago I got my start M$ bashing with the OS/2 Sysops against the shills online promoting FUD and nonesense about thr 'superbness' of Win95. It 'won people's heart's' for two reasons. One was browser platform and the other was they stopped selling/supporting DOS and Windows 3.x and steering the code away from OS/2. Since they had all the top tier PC OEMs locked up, they had CONTRACTS that won hearts. I somehow managed to avoid having *my 'heart won'. -JCJ
