Ira, I agree !

Win doze (that is what spell check in Netscape changes Windoze to <BG>...) 95 is
a JOKE in the workplace; it MIGHT be OK at home, I don't know.
I'm running NT 4.0 on a Toshiba notebook and LOVE it - as LONG as you have LOTS
of memory (I'm running 144mb) !!!

On my new job I have several PC's to play with and one has 95 on it and it is
CONSTANTLY locking up...

NO THANKS ! I LOVE C/A and being able to cut and paste AS/400 stuff, but I find
myself CONSTANTLY saving anything I do for fear that it will lock up and loose
everything. I ACTUALLY (for now - until I get a new notebook and get it 
connected
to the AS/400) have reverted BACK to a TERMINAL for most of my coding work !
Arghhh...

Chuck
