Doug,
   better start chewing on at least an arm. The original retail version of
Windows 95 did indeed not support USB. But starting with OEM Service Release
2, USB support was added to Windows 95. See
    http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q253/7/56.ASP
Nevertheless, software vendors may choose to not test new products with
Windows 95 anymore. That's how you end up with products that require Windows
98, even so there is no technical reason why it couldn't work with Windows
95. Look at Logitech's website for example - the older USB QuickCam models
are supported on Windows 95, while the newest model isn't.

Win95 and NT 4.0 cannot and will not support USB.

Win98 and Win2K will.

If I'm wrong, I'll eat a Jar-Jar minifig.

Rats! I hate the taste of plastic. :) Thanks for the article. Of course, it's worth noting that the only way to get these OEM versions is to buy a computer with it installed! I wonder how many machines shipped that had the update? --Doug Wilcox (...) (24 years ago, 18-Oct-00, to lugnet.robotics)
