Because someone out there running Windows 95 could probably be persuaded to upgrade his hardware (and all his other apps) and start running Windows 7. I guess?
I don't see how this has anything to do with the "only for distribution with a new PC" text on the CD.

And btw, some people like collecting Windows Media...like me 😁
I got a small but nice collection of Windows media that I collected over the years, mainly from gifted disks and some lucky local buys (like the select Windows ME disk).
Yeah, me too. 😁 I still have my original Windows 95 CD from my Acer 166MMX I bought in 1997, and a Windows 98 FE from when I upgraded back then. Add to that disks for Office 97, NT4.0 and 2000. Very useful!
Yup, I always prefer to have original disks too 😀
Of course anyone could tell you you could "just go download" it, but imo the disks themselves are a lil part of retrocomputing itself 😉
