I can't use that excuse, I personally use OS/2 my wife uses Win95, so
does  my Dad, and I am expected to keep their machines running as they
want to.  Dad never learns he has 3 machines with Win95, he asked me
one time why I never used Windows, I replies: "I wont use inferior
Software, or Operating Systems.."

BTW my Dad's machines are over 500 miles away.  Talk about hard to do
sometimes.  And I can't even use PM2You to fix his wrecks.
