Hi MICHAEL!
 MS>  So, you offer a rather interesting possibility. Although I find that 
 MS> possibility quite illogical for Microsoft. Whereas, it doesn't seem

 MS> about EVERYONE moving to the new OS (Win95),..
Which reminds me.. how difficult it was to find a copy of win3.1 in stores 
about the time MS was doing the W95 launch.    I needed 3.1 because I was 
setting a 486dx machine that was primarily going to be used just for modest 
Windows multimedia stuff for kids.
I found a DUSTY copy that was still marked at a pretty high price.  CAN$130 I 
think.  I managed to get a $25 discount on the spot.   That was during the 
W95 launch.
There is NO WAY that I will moving to W95 (unless I *have* to buy a new PC; 
it will probably already come pre-installed with the product).
 MS>  In any case, thanks for the input.
Okey dokey.
