>Here in Maine all the Staples stores have boxes of Win95 stacked up and falling over. Before I buy it (or rather IF I buy it) I want to see it working and get a hands on demo and no one has it set up on the store computers.< I got it, on the first day even. I installed it, played around for about 20 minutes and rebooted NT. The multitasking isn't as good as NT, even just using 32bit apps. Under NT I can switch between apps instantly, even while using the floppy drives, Win95 pauses for upwards of 10-15 seconds. This is on a P100/32MB. I am glad that W95 is shipping though, I'll be able to use most of those 32bit apps.
