Then I burned my first CD on Windows 95, ended up with a coaster because I moved the mouse or Windows played a sound, and my "obsolete" Amiga would end up sticking around for another half decade... Amiga simply crashed far less and could do pre-emptive properly. A screen saver or music app didn't ruin CD burning. I ended up finally migrating to Win with Windows 2000 as Win was consistently worse until then -- at everything.
The Win 95 box, bought at insane cost as I spcced top end everything including SCSI and 10k drives became my first FreeBSD server - v2.1 IIRC - within months of (finally) buying into Windows. Kept the subscription to BSD CD releases until they shuttered it to support them...
Granted I was on 040 A3000 and A4000 with 24 bit retargetable graphics by the time of Windows 95, and was no longer earning the living off Amiga by then.
