I upgraded to 98 and it works better than 95 most of the time. All my apps
and internet run much faster. It takes longer to initially load but closes
faster. So far I like it  except when I had the power saver on to shut down
the hard drive, it froze up and I had to hard boot so I discontinued the
power saver and have had no more problems.
