Yes, but Linux offers at least as much abstraction as Win95, so i don't really
see that it changes their decision...  In fact, already supporting an abstracted
platform should make it EASIER to do a win95 port.  Little low-level driver 
work should have to be done for either Win95 or Linux.  DOS is the only platform 
where these issues come up and there if things like networking were left out and
only placed in the win95 and linux versions, many of the driver related issues 
could be sidestepped.
