it did what the Amiga couldnt do


What, crash repeatedly? Sorry couldn't resist.  :lol:

I used Win95 and Amiga side by side for years. Don't recall 95 being more capable at anything. I will agree that by the time 98 came out Amiga was lagging behind, but still a more stable OS.

These days I still enjoy doing retro C64 stuff. Even thought about publishing my own new cart app.

Maybe I was just pushing 95 harder than normal. Harddisk recording, 3D, and video. First on a Dell later on a compaq, 95 just loved to crash or lock when things got cpu intensive. Similar work on the Amiga wasn't 100% either, but vastly better. Later when I moved to NT, things improved. You mention tcp and browsers. Amiga had them too. Sure I had to pay a little more, but I didn't mind. Was iexporer 3.0 better than amiga's? Who could tell at 38k? :lol: Back then I just wanted to get my editing done, and 95 couldn't hack it. If I really wanted to get some work done, I pulled out Geos on the 128. :-P
