- I don't think my A3000 was overpriced. I think the hardware necessary to run
- Win95 is overpriced.
-
- But that should be nothing new to you.

- Oh, well, NO SOFTWARE SHOULD CRASH AT ALL. But it does. Apart from very tiny
- tools and apps EVERY program got it's flaws.
-
- The PC is running fine, but apparently MS Word crashes or do some very
- interesting things to the document. That happens.
-
- I do not trust MicroSoft. Period.

-
- We got Win95 running on a 486DX66 with 8MB, EIDE hd, double speed CDROM and a VL
- bus gfx card (don't know it's type).
-
- I admit, it runs better (faster) than Win3.11, but compared to my good ole A3000
- I was not impressed.
