About unofficial dot NET backport for Win95
edit@Isi96:
I saw, as of now currently, the article is mainly about Win95 with mention of Win3/31/311 NT3/31/351/40...in MS official release context.
Except one, which is your edit, about unofficial release of dot NET for Win95.
There are many unofficial updates, mod, unofficially release such as unofficially OSR3, however...
...my take is, about unofficial updates/release, I would worried myself if I would to add this, will this would be removed for not WP:NOTABLE enough...

On the other hand, I would had create a new sub-section of (Upgradeability) and titled (dot NET backport) & place right at the end within (Upgradeability) section so that it is arranged chronologically. Just my two cents. Thanks for your attention. --- Cat12zu3 (talk) 01:47, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

The problems with 386 B1-stepping processors

Should this be included in the article? It's a chip bug, limited to B1 386, and the final release of 95 doesn't support it. Eddmanx (talk) 07:25, 23 August 2024 (UTC)
