I've got an older 486 compaq laptop with 16 mb ram, no room for a cd drive. I installed win 95 on it with an LS120 superdrive (parallel).I copied the win95 installation files onto the superfloppy and used the dos drivers to get it setup. Because it has a small harddrive I don't store the .cab files on the drive. Win95 doesn't run half bad on it.Gets by on the internet too.I was kind of surprised, expecting it to much slower than it is . Good enough for away from home. Then I decided to DCC it to my other pc's. That works fine between win98 and win95.
