2. Comment - 10 Years On: Windows 95 Remembered

   I'm also using WinXP and FC4 simultaneously. After several months of hard-core FC3/4, predated by years of windows use, I've come to a rather simple conclusion.
   
   Windows brought, and continues to bring computing to the masses. That's what makes the 10th anniversary of Win95 so important. There were many OSs before it, but it ran on the most hardware, it was the simplest to use, etc. It appealed to the masses.
   
   Microsoft continues this tradition today. XP is probably the most fool-proof operating system to date, but this has a down side for experienced users who want the most out of their computing experience.
   
   For the beginner and the light user, Windows is by far the better operating system. Even for medium and up, Linux can be daunting at first. Once learned, however, Linux becomes by far the better operating system for the sole reason that it isn’t tailored to the beginner. Even then, a dual boot can be useful, and even necessary for developers and IT people. (Some of whom will stay on Windows because that’s what they work with)
