Your right, W95 doesn't belong on a business machine... But it is =
because Win95 was out long before NT 4 so many applications where =
written to the Win95 APIs (Why developers didn't use Win32 API, I don't =
know) Win 3.51 Workstation was not a standard business OS for the =
masses.  going from WFW to Win3.51 didn't seem to make sense... Going =
from WFW to Win95 did... Also, considering you could upgrade WFW to =
Win95

I know what you're saying, but as far as I'm concerned, 9x never had any
place being in an office.  I guess MS must feel the same way since XP
home can't even authenticate against a DC.  That's fine.  Keep that junk
at home!
