W95 is not as robust as Linux however, it can be. I have 4 w95
(all Build 950-C with FAT32) print servers and one of they is also a
DOCument server along with the 3 w/Nt3.51 servers. Down time is near
zero (power failure caused last down time). However the hardware is all
very tried and proven Pent 133s and 166s and updated device drivers. Heck
the Domain and mail server is a 486dx/100!

Junk apps will however kill you. Way to little ram, 32mb is enough though.
What will really kill you is if there is not enough space on the disk,
between temporaries and swap space I've seen systems go unstable with 100mb
of free space. Also failing to install updates and service packs doesn't
help any.

I happen to really dislike MS and their products but they can and do work.
