Windows 95 turns 26 years-old today. (c) The Verge |
On This Day in 1995, Microsoft made a significant advancement with its operating system and introduced Windows 95 to the world.
The New York Times called it "the splashiest, most frenzied, most expensive introduction of a computer product in the industry's history."
The most vital internal addition of Windows 95 was its support of 32-bit applications that made sure programs specifically for the new system ran faster.
The plug and play feature combined with a one hour instructional video by Jennifer Aniston and Matthew Perry also made its release a Blockbuster event.
