 Yes but for what purpose, _nowadays_?

 Yes, your statement *is* right so far, but consider this one _much too old_
 for recent
 programs - and so it's absolutely inappropriate for people that use VC++ 6
 to create software!
So this msvcrt thing in W95b is completely useless and won't work together
 with recent VC++ software (I'VE TESTED IT!)

 Without an _upgrade_ of the MSV* libraries, you'll be stranded, even in
W95b.
