My 1st PC was a Win 95, it had a Pentium 200MHz MMX 2MB STB Velocity Video Card and a 4.3 GB HDD, not to mention the 2GB of Ram, that was alot of computer back then and cost about $3000 lol
2MB ? It would never start! ~ My system had 64MB RAM and I managed just fine (I was considered the king of memory) never really used more than 40MB anyway.
Lol!!!
Regardless of the hiccup, Windows' authors seemed to be having a great time, taking it in stride
(..and very soon) all the way to the bank!!
We had dial-up too, and an e-mail address that ended with ..earthlink.net (at one time the largest privately owned isp, in the U.S. besides the corporate might of behemoth AOL) before leaving Californina as part of it's merger with mindspring.
I remember endless pop-up windows, and this is so like watching some devilishly twisted game, ..in fact, there is a flash game based upon this characteristically frustrating and overwhelming occurrence called "Super Race" (fmr. "Advert Attack") http://www.neopets.com/games/game.phtml?game_id=204
