I used Win2.x and 3.1 (and 3.11 WfW) extensively, and switched into Win95 sometime in early 1996. But to be sure, I was still using DOS for a lot tasks, so I only invoked the "WIN" command when needed. OTOH, most of the DOS world was switching over into Windows as fast as they could by about 1990.
We still have at least one Windows NT 4.0 machine running 24 hrs a day 365. That was a good vintage.
I also started monkeying around with computers in the pre-DOS days. When Windows 3.1 came out, I finally got a bootleg version and tried it. I thought my wrists would swell up from having to use that damned mouse. When I had a problem, I was able to call a 1-800 number and speak with a knowledgeable AMERICAN and they didn’t care HOW I got the operating system, just that I was using it (to build market share, I’m sure).
When Windows 95 rolled out, it was like a rock show. People were all over it and the North Richland Hills Comp-USA store opened at midnight to a huge crowd. MS had been warning people before the event not to use the publicly available beta version for vital stuff. Once they got the market share, they started acting like a “for profit” company again.
Not being a tech person I don’t remember the machine I had in 1994 but it was some beast.
Lot’s of stuff was loaded on those big 5 inch floppy disks. Load one in and the machine would Wheerrrrr, Wheerrr, Thump, Thump and then come up on screen.
Must have been some time in 1996 when I got a PC with Win 95. Still have it out in the garage and fire it up now and again.
