Windows 95 the O/S of the Future

The way of the computing world is changing at a neck breaking pace. People are
looking for computers to be easy to use, and to make life easier for them.  The
computer manufactures and software developers have started to tailor computers
and programs to fit the needs of the new “computer age”.  Graphical Interface
Software (GUI) began to make computing easier and people who never dreamed of
owning computers began to buy them.  Macintosh was one of the first GUI
computers to hit the market, but it was not IBM compatible, so it did not take
over the mainstream of the computer industry.  Since most computers where being

People didn't know what jumpers needed to go where to make their hardware work.
Or why their CDROM wouldn't work since they changed their sound board.  Most
hardware periphials have all the configurations built into a chip that
communicates with Windows 95 to find out where it needs to put itself in the
address map.  This allows users to have fancy big screen monitors and connect to
the Internet with high speed modems.  They can also put in faster video cards
that use all the nice Windows 95 features, thus making their computing less
complicated Windows 95 is set up with novice users in mind.  As with Windows 3...
