Windows 95 was the OS on my first PC after I begrudgingly gave up Amiga back in time. Never have I used an OS so shitty to use and unstable myself. >.< Even last year when I was suffering Vista I thanked in my mind it wasn't The Win95... ._. My best experiences have been with Windows 98, 7 and Fedora 6. So far Linux Mint 10 feels smooth too, but it's too early to tell.

Very often I feel that the way the OS works for the user is all about luck: so many have complained about Windows 98, while I used it without reformat for like 6 years and didn't have complaints. I cannot really explain it, except that I was a bit older already with Win98 so maybe I was also more patient than with 95 and therefore don't remember it being a pain. x)

Just goes to show that even in factory settings being engineered by giant robots, not every computer is the same, as well as not every installation of OS.

[Pitkin]

Yes, I guess so. ^^ I'm sort of happy about that still: would be sad to have everything working exactly the same like... like machines! ;_;

@pitkin: yay i'm hoping to get the game!

and i found out there are unlockable characters. i was like OMGWUT *0*
win95 was my first OS, but it was my uncle's computer so i didn't have enough access to it to deem it "stable" or w/e. it didn't SEEM bad though. :\ not NEARLY as bad as *shudder* VISTA.

the first computer here was a compaq presario with windows 98. my mum got it from her work at the time. i think it was the last one left and on discount. ^^;

@krizo: quit insulting my OS!! you don't hear me ranting about macs anymore >.>;

EVERYONE KEEPS POSTING BEFORE ME SO I DON'T GET A TURN ;___;

Even a spec of dust can make the construction process different.

My Mac has a "beauty mark" about 1/3 of a Millimeter wide on the far right of the right palm rest where the aluminum was ground the wrong direction. So it has backwards lighting reactions. I'm thinking it was caused by a piece of dust being there when they began grinding it down.

Do you mean the special enemies that appear if you win X, Y and Z number of duels in a row? I remember having played with at least the monkey and the "fishes" (cannot remember what they were), but I don't remember how to make them playable - maybe just beating them when they appear? ._.

Man, I hope I have >5000 posts someday. (non spammy ones that is )

[Chocofreak13]

i almost read that as <5000. xD

i was reading some random article about the characters pitkin. apparantly some dude in england and his sister beat them on vs- computer, then going to 2 player and they were playable. apparantly there were 5 to unlock. :\

[Pitkin]

Five? o.o; I think I found two or three at most!

I wish I could play it right now. v.v Stupid cd missing and it would never run on wine anyway. ;___;

I don't like PlayStation, I'm hopeless with pads. ._. My only console is NES. >.>

[Chocofreak13]

speaking of which, my uncle has an atari.

[Pitkin]

Post a picture of my Nintendo? In member picture thread? x)

Took a picture of it already, though there's nothing really to see: it's on the lowest shelf of the tv-stand in living room, below Remilia's Gamecube and Wii. ._. Maybe I'll post it a bit later.
