I bought a RAM expansion from 4 to 8 MB, so my PC could run Win95. It was amazing!

  Windows 95 could actually run on just 4MB, just very slowly…
  
  We actually tried that once, on a 386sx 16MHz with 4MB RAM. We nicknamed that system Slow Poke haha!

Oh, the many months of testing Chicago, the beta for Windows 95. So many weird problems. And not long after when does 95 came out, Nashville started testing, which would’ve been Windows 96 or 97. But it was shelved from Memphis, which became Windows 98.
