I think that whats so distasteful is the fact that Windows is so buggy that 
Micro has put out, to my knowledge, 4 upgrades already and we uses have to 
pay for EVERY one of them. We end up buying the same poor performing OS over 
and over. And Bill Gates gets richer and richer with the "More Bugs the 
Better" working wonders with his bank account...and we consumers are stupid 
enough to go along with it in order to play the games that the companies make 
Exclusively for Win95.  Those companies have tie-ins somewhere along the 
money line by way of buy-outs or generous "gifts" from Micro of their OS or 
such.  All these companies that supply Win95 with their products, new 
computer systems etc., you can't tell me that they buy these full versions at 
a $200.00 or more pop each and just give them to the buying consumer...
Had OS2 Warp flooded the market using Gates tactics, we be seeing games made 
solely for OS2 Warp now. But they weren't as greedy. OS2 Warp3 has had to put 
out, last I found, 17 versions of fix discs (pack) for their operating system 
and as far as I know we have not had to pay for one of them! I got fixpack 17 
off of the internet FREE!!!
I got the first version of Win95 and it runs like cramp so I deleted it 
instead of shelling out $100.00 or for Versions B, C and D? each yet!!! 
Cripes, I'm almost half way to buying a new computer system instead of 
fattening Gates bank account. Plus all the money I did NOT spend on Win95 
only games...
My opinion, no response necessary.
