 Hello Hans,
 Windows '95 has been very good for running my board and using it's
 built in networking has allowed me to easily setup my own LAN. 
 WIN '95 is not perfect, but it works better than 3.1.  I wish IBM
 had done a better job marketing OS/2 so MS would have some real
 competition in the marketplace and the consumers would have more
 choices.
