Samy,
there was no yupgrade path from win95 to win95 Second edition , you were
Oh, you meant Win95 Gold (August 1995) to Win95 OSR2 (1996). Actually that was more than any 89.95, you couldn't buy it without purchasing a new system (well you could if your OEM was nice enough, but it would cost you $120-180).
froced to go out and buy a new upgrade at 89.00 . After all the fus , M$ made some changes , I will check out the upgrade for win 098 to win98 SE.
Well, really Windows 95 and 98 are very different. Win 98 has all of the great stuff OSR 2 had, plus smart registry backups, maintenance wizard, system file checker, Windows Update (WOW!), and various bug fixes. Win 98 SE also had many upgrades including IE 5.01 ($5 on CD or free download), Internet Connection Sharing (ICS - comparable product price $29-39), and many bug fixes (which, BTW, Microsoft offered as a free CD if you didn't want ICS). -Tim ----------------------------------------------------------------- Timothy R.

Jack,
I'm not a troll. I've been using Linux for 7 years and I have a 1st class degree in Comp Sci. I think I know what I'm talking about, and I also know when I *don't* know stuff, which is more than can be said for a lot of people.
What actually caused my original post was when I saw that Windows 98 (I think, maybe NT or W2K) does what we call IP masquerading. It seems that Microsoft is catching up with
NO NO NO , its another way to rob you of another 89.99 upgrading your first edetion to second edition just for a few more tweaks on somthing you allready own and paid for.
the system level power of Linux and slowly erradicating our advantages. This worries me.
If you think this is also a troll, kindly keep your mouth shut and let others make constructive comments.
