Windows XP vs. Windows 95... who wins?


Recommended Posts

Microsoft Windows XP wins hands down, mainly because many of my applications can not run on Microsoft Windows 95. I have seen that video before and man, that test just was not justified. :D

Erm... Windows 95 wins.... at being the most innovative OS. WinXP was pretty mediocre in comparison to the great release that was Win95 (at the time). XP is very unremarkable in comparison. I think Blackcomb or Longhorn will actually be a lot more revolutionary (and I really hope they are!).

Please. You might have a point that WinXP wasn't as revolutionary as Win95 was over Win3.1, but does that make it win the battle between XP and 95? I don't think so.

What they fail to mention is that, pathetically, win9x has better user customization than xp in some respects. For instance, video resolution is user dependent in 9x whereas it is system dependent in xp. This really ****es me off...

That has got to be the worst thing for alot of multi-user computers (like a family's) since everyone has different viewing preferences. Funny as much as Microsoft touts accessibility, this goes against it. Oh well maybe they will fix it sometime soon.

Yeah I was amazed when I got myself a copy of Windows 95 the day it was released. And now...Windows 95 already a history, but it has evolutionized the look of Windows ever since...well as least from Windows 3.1 :)

i was talking like about how they were comparing an old almost non exsistint item to a almost brandnew item

WinXP vs Win95

N64 vs Regular Nintendo

for the nintendo's tho the comparisons would be based on graphics and sound and the such.
