Microsoft harrasment.

I hear everyday how people say that Microsoft just wants our
money, WIN 95 has nothing over DOS and 3.x it's just a scam to get our
money. I Will protest buying WIN 95 till I have to buy it!! Microsoft
upgrades too much!
------------------------------------------------------------------------my reply:
        1.)Sure Microsoft wants our money!! They have to feed their
families too!! Look at cerial prices!! 4.xx a box!!! 24... THAT'S
RIGHT!! 24 boxes of cerial= 1 win 95 upgrade CD!! 3 months of cerial!!
instead of a program that laat forever!! Look at cable prices too!!! Now
who wants all your money???!!!
        2.)That's NOT true! Win 95 is soooo much more powerfull than DOS
or 3.x!! It is a true 32 bit operating system, sounds unimportant
right??Not really... This can be twice as good!! The new programing
language is twice as easy and better too!!!
<"But I like DOS!!">
        Your point?? Dos is still there and better than ever!!
<"DOS runs slow in a WIN 95 box">
         True, but if you set it up to restart to dos whan you click on
NASCAR, not only will it clear the memory, but it can have it's own
config.sys and autoexec.bat optimising your machine specifically for
NASCAR w\o slowing other programs. Some games do run better in WIN 95
dos box than is true dos.
        3.) Why would you do that?? it's only 99$ to upgrade. Your
protest won't hurt Microsoft, it'll just hurt your computer. I suggest
16 MB of Ram for Win 95. 8 is fine if your going to run your programs in
DOS anyways.
        4.) It does?? This is th first upgrade in a long time!! Sure
they wen't from 3.1 to 3.11 recently, it really wasen't a big upgrade.
It was just good for LAN's. You think Microsoft is bad... Look at
Apple!!
Well that's what I got to say!!
(Probly got a lot of misspelings!! Disregard them!!)
