re: #84 Targetpractice

I honestly think most of my hostility towards Win 95 is misplaced, as this was the era when “compatibility” was a joke and getting new software might mean an hour of fiddling with video card settings just to get it to work. I remember my sister being totally bummed out that she got a Pinocchio game back in the day that our PC absolutely refused to run. And this was back in the days when finding easy fixes on the internet was not a thing.

I did not mind 98SE. It fixed just enough to be stable and I could run my DOS stuff easily enough but I was still wishing OS/2 4 was viable and realizing I’d have to break down & go back to Windows NT 4 and wishing I could afford an Alpha box to run it on.
