- Actually, OS/2 is a better overall OS than Win95, though. Multitasking
- support for Windows and DOS apps is better than under Win95, and the GUI even
- has some advantages. Microsoft's decision to use a 16-bit kernal in Win95 is
- a bit silly, if you ask me. :) The system can really have some clumsy
- quirks if you compare it to a nice stable OS like OS/2.

- Win95 is looking pretty solid already, and certainly seems robust.
