The Best of Bill Gates

What is your favorite Microsoft product or memory of a product? Mine would have to be MS Dos 5.0 and Windows 95.

MS Dos 5.0 was a great OS. It added new memory management features that allowed you to get the most out of that 640kb of ram that most programs had to reside in. It made memory management tweaking a thing of the past.

Windows 95 was released on August 24th 1995 and I still remember the day. Upgrading my Packard Bell 286 Megahertz 80286 machine. When 95 booted for the first time it was quite an experience for someone who was uses to the command line of MS Dos as well as Win 3.1. Although it was not the OS that Windows is today, it brought many people to the world of PC’s.
