Regardless, Win95 is pretty much the standard on modern computers these
days.  No matter how much you hate Bill or Microsoft, that's just the way it
is. There is a lot of people who can't tell A:> from C:> , but when it comes
to Windows 95 can do a lot more than most of us can. If everyone wanted to
really on the older languages for programming, there wouldn't have been a
Euphoria in the first place! By the by, did anyone figure out how to
effectively combine an external DOS music-player with a Euphoria program?
