Hi People: Have Micron 350 M.-128 ram PC with Windows 95C (Fat32).Everything works great but was wondering if it would be worth it to install windows98 ? Is there any big advantage to doing so ?......Or should I go by the old saying "if it ain't broke,don't fix it" Your opinions would be appreciated.

If you like the way your system is working then stick with 95, but if you would like it run slower, and have a junky explorer for for file management, switch to 98.

I've worked with all Windows Versions and found bad and good points about them all (apart from 95a which should have caused MS to be sued from here to eternity) Win95c is pretty good, still somewhat buggy but if yours is working fine... Win98 is a wee bit slow, but with 128mb of ram, you shouldn't notice it too much...as fot explorer..it ain't too mush different from 95.. 98 also has a few usefull system tools like msconfig and system file checker, also enhances the right mouse button a bit to let you edit the start menu without going through start|settings|taskbar....etc. However, if you load Iexplorer 4 or 5, to Win95c you just about have Win98
Summary: I know that, located somewhere on Win 95 and up, and, I think, on MS-DOS 5.0 and up, there is a QBASIC Programming Language. Could anybody tell me how to get to it on Win 95/98? ...
