Easy. It's so simple it's unstable. It's a straight up tall order to boot up W95 on a new machine, it took me days and I rate a guru. But. Did you ever see it go? It's designed for 100 MHz, minimum of 16 MHz.

"Official system requirements were an Intel 80386 DX CPU of any speed, 4 MB of system RAM, and 120 MB of hard drive space".

Do you know how this runs on a 4 GHz? You can't see the menus pop. You click on Notepad and for a second there it seemed like it opened before you clicked it.

Oh, and, mine crashed 5 minutes in. It really is W95.

We could have W2K in theory, which is stable - but it starts to drag if under 128M RAM, which we don't really have. Also, needs some 300 MHz to run and that's a problem if emulated.

Besides, I like having ISA support. Makes me warm and fuzzy inside. ;)
