 ==== Windows 95 ====
-Windows 95 was released in 1995. These systems were no longer an MS-DOS frontend but a stand-alone creation that was, of course, partially compatible with MS-DOS for a long time to come. [([[https://www.computerhistory.org/timeline/1995/|Computer History]])]

+==== Hidden tune in Windows XP ====
-Surely many of us have never heard the great music that is supposed to make your time spent at your computer more pleasant when you first set up Windows XP, right after installing the system. Microsoft has chosen a great song, but to be able to hear it, you need to have drivers installed for your sound card. Unfortunately, the Microsoft database lacks software for many models, so the sound will not be heard. But rest assured, in the "C:Windows" directory you will find a file named "title". - that's the tune!
