> W95 was a terrible POS In their defense, it wasn't really designed for cash registers anyway.

  Yes, but when you market yourself as a general purpose OS, someone is bound to use it somewhere they deem to be a general purpose. Not to mention it's easier for lay people to program things for Win95 than other OS due to availability and also due to VB. When I was a kid and saw an out of order POS was showing Win95 desktop (could be NT. When did NT start having start menu?), I thought it was cool. I wanted to play Solitaire on it while waiting for my mom to finish paying at some other counter.

    Whoosh! I believe the comment you replied to was a dad-joke level double entendre. > When did NT start having start menu? Windows NT 4 in 1996 had a similar shell to Windows 95.
