I used to run Perl script in Windows 95, OSR2 when I started work first.
It worked fine unless I did something else and then the machine would

minutes it tends to lock up for no apparent reason. (you want to copy
files from C: to D:? can't let you do that! mhhhahhahahaha! *CRASH*)
Not being sarcastic either..
