You can dual boot your computer to run win95 and FreeBSD. But once you
start FreeBSD your win95 apps are unavailable. Once you start win95,
FreeBSD apps are unavailable. 

If you are just getting started, I recommend keeping your computer half
win95 and half FreeBSD.

There is one possibilty. There is a program called "wine" that can run
win95 binaries under FreeBSD. Unless you are very advanced user I
recommend that you _not_ use wine.

Thank you,       | Try some of this. It will show you where you're at.
