dilogic .. well.. windows 95 was released way late, but due to releases of betas and also some engineers at microsoft leaking some versions it had been much spoken of for a long time, so.. The thing is; as long as it's not yet released and kind of kept a secret, and still not.. There was quite a buzz.. I believe this comoic was printed just after the actual release, but before everyone noticed that even the release was way too buggy to be useful.. The original windows 95 which created the very concept of "bsod" (an expression that lives on even today), even though that particular screen have disappeared.. (yes yes, the windows nt screen which shows errors during boot also got blue background, so.. it kind of still exist, but that particular bsod actually shows some useful data, the bsod from windows 95 only stated that you were screwed.. I never understood why the operating system didn't automatically reboot instead.. there was no way around it, and no useful information)
cthulu . Nopez, it was someone who used the music from that song to mock windows 95, the title of this spoof is "windows 95 sucks" and can be found on youtube.. Main joke being windows 95 being verbose and !$%*!$%*! system resources and forcing the person wanting the new operating system to buy an entirely new computer just to be able to boot.
Wasn't W95 the one that had the marketing campaign that featured the Rolling Stones song "Start Me Up"? The joke was that there's a line in the lyric that says, "you make a dead man come"...
