For people like myself, it was the first family computer in the home. Before that there wasn’t much of an option for us. We had Atari and Commodore computers in the past mostly for gaming. The previous version of windows on the PC wasn’t very user friendly and Macs were expensive. Getting that first PC with Windows 95 was like crossing over into an new era of doing homework, games, internet and information in front of a computer at home. People could explore this new way of life and reconsider education and career choices. The possibilities were new and endless.
