Subject: Windows 4.0 err 95
A somewhat dull episode that jumps from the shows topic of getting a sneak peek of Win95, too suddenly talking about System 7.5 and a segment on OS/2 Warp. The time they did spend on Win95 was clunky, showing us how to make ugly looking pictures and design drafts of an office with bad furniture. Nostalgic, nonetheless however.
