3.1 and 98se were pretty decent at the time too.
Yea, 3.11 was a significant change. It was still just dos with a shell.
A usable shell, which was quite new for the time.
You mean 98se? 3.11 was more than a shell with all the updates. It had a 32bit preemptive subsystem.
95 was 3.11 with a good gui. At release there were better guis for 3.11 than 95's like Pubtech and Norton Desktop.
Did you know that windows XP had a feature to enable the old progman gui 3.11 had, I used that for a long while till they took it out in an update.
3.11 with win32s
