You have a choice, but evidently prefer Win95. 'nuff said on that. Mac OS industry doesn't have programmers willing to write software that I need - industry-specific accounting software.

The Wintel industry is broad, large, and compatible, so I have even have choices when I pick which industry-specific software package to buy. Mac OS? Fine for graphics professionals, word processing, spreadsheets. But that's about it I think. No offense meant. It's just pretty useless for my purposes.

<I have used a Mac and found it greatly superior to Windows both in ease and speed>

You have just admitted there are alternatives to Windows, shooting
a hole in your own case against Microsoft.

p.s.
I've done software development on an Apple platform, and my
opinion is that Mac sucks.
