Are there any real differences between the two? I used 95 for a
couple of years before 98 came out. Seems to be the same thing, but
less stable and more prone to freeze up.
I haven't had any
trouble with supporting later systems. The adaptations
for NT are fairly minimal since those systems have
ANSI string support. I did find that I had to research
and deal with permission issues for Vista/7, but I
haven't really seen anything in the way of problematic
functionality. I guess it depends a lot on what you
want to do and what you need to ship, though.
I write a lot of small utility-type programs that perform somewhat low-
level system functions. So, I run into trouble quite often with newer
windows versions that don't want applications doing much other
displaying "hello world" message boxes and collecting user input via
edit controls...
For example, this WIndows 98 specific process killer (written in C):
