Yes, windows 95 seemed pretty good back then.   I started with a 300mhz pc, upgraded to 333mhz then 500mhz.   I had 80 gigs of hard drive space on it, and it ran all my dos-type games pretty well. Such as Doom 1 and 2, Duke Nukem 3d, and a lot of those spins-offs of Wolfenstein-3d. MAME was ok but neogeo games only ran at 20fps and some 3d games at about 1 fps.   This computer was the first one I had a CD burner on, with Roxio 5. What a revolution that was to a music collector as myself!   I liked the compatibility with dos games, and it booted up and shut down in seconds. Unlike todays super-dooper pc which can take a while.   It was useless with USB though, I just couldn't get that to work.   Overall though, I think Windows 98SE was far superior.
