In another big tech moment in 1995, Microsoft released Windows 95, aptly named for the year it came out. How many years had it been since Windows had released a brand new version of its operating system?

The previous version of Windows was released in 1990, and was called Windows 3. As described on BT.com: "Windows 95 was a huge leap forward in terms of the user interface. Microsoft’s OS had previously lagged behind the look and feel of Apple Macintosh software."
