&gt; &gt;&gt;I don't see any difference between 95 and 98 stability wise.
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Stability did not show up until 98SE.
&gt;
&gt; My wife shutdown her 98SE last night around 11:30.  10:30 this morning,
&gt; it still had the win98 shutdown screen.  Locked up again.  If that's
&gt; stability, you can have it.
&gt;
&gt; &gt;
&gt; &gt; Got one here that is almost four years old without a reinstall, or any
&gt; &gt; serious repairs needed. Was in daily use as the family box for over two
&gt; &gt; years. Now only used by the one &quot;ol' stick in the mud&quot; who
&gt; refuses to see
&gt; &gt; the light ;-) (smiley in case she reads this)
&gt;
&gt; My wife's machine is there only because I've not found a way to run
&gt; Printshop on a non-M$ OS.

Win4Lin will run anything that runs on Windows98 plus it boots up faster
(just click on an icon on a Linux desktop), installs faster,is more secure
(just a program running on a partition on Linux) and runs totally everything
inside Linux.  Is cheaper and faster than VMWare. I loved it to death when I
was running it.

  It's a school teacher's major tool.  She will
&gt; be running a dual boot shortly though, so I'll not have any windows
&gt; machines in my house which connect to the internet.
