The value just wasn't there in giving your old computer a software update.

Most notably, that computer with Windows 95 on it also had a CD drive.



Well, computers were expensive enough many of us just kept upgrading parts to make something like Windows 95 work. My 486 slowly morphed into a Pentium system with largely the same parts over the course of three years during that time. But Windows 95 worked great on my 486 -- it felt like a great upgrade at the time.
