SR 2.5 is one I hadn't heard of.

Also, some included DLLs in Win95 don't work the same in 98. :-(

Well, it's like all the stuff that says USB support is missing in
Win95. It exists in SR2, but it's flaky.

Speaking of USB, I wound up with a couple og USB iMac keyboards. They
work just fine in Win98SE. the Apple and "cloverleaf" keys actually map
to something useful (Windows and Alt as I recall). 

Freaks people out when I plug one into their PC to test the USB ports.
