You can't download Win 95 anywhere...and if it's the OSR/2 (Win 95b)
version, you can't even get a copy unless you by certain hardware. It's
illegal to copy Win 95, regardless of what version it is. Microsoft
owns the rights...you as a user are only allowed the license to use it
on one computer (yours). Technically speaking, no one "owns" the
software you buy...what you're paying for is the license to use it on
your PC or Mac. Sorry, but I think Mom's going to have to open the
piggy bank.

Hello,
I know this is a little off the subject, but does anyone know where I
can download Windows95 or any way of coping it from a CD to a floppy
disk. I have Win95 on a CD and my mother-in-law would like to upgrade
her computer. I don't know how to copy it from the CD to a floppy, or
if there is any way to do this. I would greatly appreciate if any one
knows a site where I can download it onto a floppy or how to copy from
CD to floppy. Please help. Thanks.
