1995: Massive hype as Microsoft launches Windows 95

"The internet has survived for 20 years without anyone in control, but it's now at a crossroads and may never be the same again."

Microsoft releases its new Windows 95 operating system amid great fanfare, with midnight queues at computer shops.

It is reported that the launch campaign has cost $200m, with $8m going to the Rolling Stones for its song Start Me Up.

However, not everyone is buying the multi-million dollar hype.
