Aside from the many bugs, here are two of my favorite "FEATURES" of
Windows 95...
1. Reboot for changes to take effect ?
NO ! You're a multi-tasking operating system, aren't you !
Just do it !
Stupid piece of college dropout programmer snotty rich unskilled
programmer idiocy !
In other words, "Boy is this annoying."
2. Ever install Win95 on a Novell network with say 500 users ?
Given you have a Netware server named after your company, like
"tires-r-us"...
And then somebody configures their Windows 95 with the same name
AND YOUR WHOLE NETWORK QUITS WORKING ?
That's another good one.
