Question
What is the difference between Windows 95 and Windows NT?
Answer
Despite the significant difference in the kernel base, Windows NT 3.51 was readily able to run a large number of Win32 applications designed for Windows 95. Despite this, Microsoft in their application releases muddled the issue, releasing 32-bit versions of Microsoft Office right up to Office 97 SR2b, but relying upon 16-bit versions of Internet Explorer technology.
