Microsoft released WIN 95 on this day 30 years ago.
Its first retail availability was August 24.
It was a game changer
for the average PC computer user but more important than Windows 3.1? Not

That's a great question. I had only started using PCs in 1993, so I don't
have an opinion. But for me personally I think W95 was the beginning of the
gradual end of my use of DOS outside of Windows.
Happy computing,
Murray 🙂
