Alas, I know what you're talking about.   I held out against Windoze 95 for
years because I didn't want to go thru the expense and stomach cramps of an
upgrade.   I finally gave in when I saw that all the software that was
really useful was only on W95.

New machines are really cheap now, and if you go to the Gateway or Dell
sites, you'll find somewhere their lease/buy scheme that makes it even
cheaper. My recommendation on that path, however, is that you just find the
800 number and call them.   The pages are unbelievably confusing --
zillions of options with no real editing effort -- pure Internet
philosophy:  "Supply mountains of data, let the user sort it out".
