4:01 I remember in the 1990s surfing the information superhighway really was an event. You’d get dressed up turn off the lights put on some Kraftwerk…. and spin around. Now people just slobber over their phones and tablets all day and night without as much as a 180. Where’s the magic? Where’s the suspenders? Where’s the German techno?

I 'm old school- I can't use the Internet on my PC unless I'm bathed in magenta light, sitting at my computer on a rotating platform cut into the middle of the floor of an empty room, using a DOS-based Internet browser designed by someone at BBC Newsnight. The experimental-era techno, though? I can take it or leave it.
Microsoft started to get big with Windows 3.1 (1991-ish?) but yeah Windows 1995 was a flagship in that Windows have looked similar layout-wise for the next couple of decades. Even Windows 10 / 11 is still visually similar, just the start menu placement is different
@@jessepatterson8897 stole? developing =/= stealing if i develop something that someone else did before me does not mean i stole it from him xd also defending Jobs saying that someone stole something from him is a little bit hypocritical considering how much money he basically stole from people with the prices of 'his products'... oh and what about stolen lifes and work camps? You forgot to mention about his cool work facilities where hundreds of thousands of people work 12-18h a day for a dogshit salary where in some of such places they even have to live there which basically makes them become a slaves.

These days, most people don't want new Windows features. They just want good enough left alone, something MS has had trouble doing since XP. In the Windows 95 days on the other hand, it really upgraded the capability of your computer compared to Windows 3.1.
This was our first family computer. It was a family occasion to turn it on. It later got handed down to me. It had quite a nice aesthetic to it, and it really felt like you were using a tool, as opposed to PCs and laptops now.
I had the first Apple desktop computer as soon as it became available for market. Huge loud computer the fans were loud but it worked amazing for a first time computer to the masses.

@@daithiocinnsealach1982 I'm pretty sure it's a quote stolen from a TV show called "Halt and Catch Fire", unless the show stole the quote from someone real.

They’re the thing that gets us to the thing" and it does seem to originate from HaCF. Seriously go watch it. It's my favourite TV show. Kinda like Madmen but better imo.
It's worth noting that PCs after the launch of Windows 95 are different from the PC of 1994 and before. After Windows 95, you had PCs supporting optical media, plug-and-play, USB, and modern networking.

Win 95 was the start of Microsoft becoming aggressive & greedy.

But they still try crafty little tricks to take other choices away. And their contempt for the consumer can be measured in the quality of it's products and customer services in 2022.

Windows 95 had its issues at launch, but OSR1 fixed a lot of these issues. It was succeeded by Windows 98 which was succeeded by the dumpster fire of Windows ME.
Windows 98/SE was the best of the Windows 9x era, it was relatively stable and was the first version to be properly internet and USB ready. I used it until 2003 when my dad finally upgraded us to XP.
When they kept shutting the computer labs down at uni to install windows 3.1 and 95, I did nothing but moan about it, little realising what historical times I was living through
Prodigy, AOL, Compuserve? All relics of the past. As for the Microsoft Network as a walled garden like the others, that was dead on arrival. Back then, I was using the free FidoNet via BBS systems.
In 1995 the Internet was still very young (Netscape only coming out at the end of 1994) and the services like Prodigy and Compuserve still were larger. They were offering Internet services as they saw the rapid rise of the Internet and their plan at the time was you'd get on the Internet through them as they would also be an ISP. AOL was the only one that managed this transition.
But you know that you just named two the most unreliable versions of Windows, right? ME was a total disaster and Vista was dquick cash grab just moments before the full Windows 7 was released :S
Microsoft ended up bailing out Apple in 1997 by making a $150 million investment and preventing them going bust, because of anti trust laws that prevent complete monopolies in an industry developing. They needed another business in the industry that was large enough but obviously not big enough to be a threat. They underestimated Apple though. While they both now have gargantuan $2 trillion+ market caps, Apple is worth around 20-25% more at the time of writing and makes some $100 billion net profit as opposed to Microsoft's 'modest' $73 billion.
ah yes. apple bigger, better and hah 'underestimated'... why didn't you mention the prices of their products? maybe because it never makes you better if you charge more, huh? maybe because it makes you just... more expensive
@@godzilla928 I have no idea what your point is. I was talking about market caps and their relative penetration of the IT industry. I do not own any apple products at all. I personally feel they are over priced for what they are, but that has nothing to do with business success. That is largely down to effective marketing. So again, no idea what you're saying at all.
As Bill Gates said - Steve spent twenty years telling Gates and anyone who listened that Apple was going to be the first computer company that was also an aspirational lifestyle brand. They were going to sell millions of computers at prices that no one would expect because they were selling a lifestyle. Gates thought that'd never happen. And it happened pretty much exactly as Steve told them it would and made them the premium brand of the computing world.
@@elastronaute1198 I wouldn't call it "penetration of the IT industry", unless you consider phones, tablets and their overcharging their services. Remove the phones and tablets and Apple is an IT dwarf company, compared to M$. The iPhone fanboys are literally the backbone of Apple.

I don't think this report explains the issue very well. Was the Microsoft 95 operating system making certain software applications unusable on Microsoft 95? That's their prerogative as far as I'm concerned. Yes, it's very Greedy but... They've developed the platform that is making everyone want to have a computer. If I was owner of a software application at the time I would realize the game is up and either 1. develop a better OS than Windows or 2. sell out to Windows or 3. move into a different area of business
Microsoft got greedy after XP as from then on you had to buy Microsoft word and now all office products. That's crazy and greedy, if you buy a Microsoft then all products should be included.
These days, all Windows computers come with the OS for free and they're letting you upgrade for free (I upgraded from 8.1 to 10 and then 10 to 11 for free). They make their money elsewhere (licensing OEM Windows to PC manufacturers, and of course subscriptions to Office 365, not to mention all the corporate level tools they create, like Microsoft Azure.
This is so negative. Starts off saying windows is only doing what apple done years ago, goes on to say windows is starting a monopoly with its new system. Hilarious.

Who’s going to change the language? It was made by the bbc in the 90s, you want someone to dub this whole thing?? 😂😂
Edit : why don’t you do it yourself?
Those 2 guys/experts from 0:33 to 1:04 are Dutch people. Just hearing that Thick Dutch accent lmao
Mister Corona himself in the days where he still was experiencing with computer virus instead of real life viruses lmao

Was this about Microsoft or APPLE ?!?
I don't think this report explains the issue very well. Was the Microsoft 95 operating system making certain software applications unusable on Microsoft 95?
That's their prerogative as far as I'm concerned.
Yes, it's very Greedy but...
They've developed the platform that is making everyone want to have a computer.
If I was owner of a software application at the time I would realize the game is up and either 1. develop a better OS than Windows
or 2. sell out to Windows
or 3. move into a different area of business
IT WILL NEVER CATCH ON !
When Apple was only a few years away from hring steve jobs again because it was in big big trouble.
Imagine being today's apple at that antimonopolistic era
This is THE whiniest report I've ever seen.
Microsoft got greedy after XP as from then on you had to buy Microsoft word and now all office products. That's crazy and greedy, if you buy a Microsoft then all products should be included.
You always had to buy MS Word and other office software.
These days, all Windows computers come with the OS for free and they're letting you upgrade for free (I upgraded from 8.1 to 10 and then 10 to 11 for free). They make their money elsewhere (licensing OEM Windows to PC manufacturers, and of course subscriptions to Office 365, not to mention all the corporate level tools they create, like Microsoft Azure.
Windows and Office were always separate products.
This is so negative. Starts off saying windows is only doing what apple done years ago, goes on to say windows is starting a monopoly with its new system. Hilarious.
both true, at the time

And now it is crystal clear what he truly represents and the agenda he is part of.
0:40 Bill Gates invented Web3
Windows 95/98 was so unstable with daily crashes it pushed me to move to Linux.
who asked
Whoever shall mention windows must know they will hear the echo of Linux
I would need to reinstall Windows 95 and 98 every 4-6 months, it would start doing stupid action then get a digital paralysis. Window XP was much better, windows 11 seems solid once they work out what is hogging all the PCs resources.
ok
