LOL.  That just about says it.  I refuse to even look at anything in A95
that the client won't allow me to port to at least A97.

I'm still maintaining a handful of A2.0 apps here as well.  I've considered
upsizing them but haven't found a compelling business reason to do so.
Plus, they run about 4x the speed of an equivalent A2K app.

I had a client with an invoicing app written using A1, which I avoided.  As
JC put it, A1 is a steak sauce, not a development platform.

Most developers avoided A95 like the plague due to its general
instability/suckyness.

A2.0 Oh my god...

I wonder if anyone has 2.0, 95, 97, 2K, 2K2, 2K3 on the same desktop.

No real apps where developed in 1,0 ot 1,1 so that should really not
exists anymore...
