It released to retail on the 24th of August 1995, and 29 years and 1 day ago to manufacturing.

Fuck me you're right

I Mandela effected myself. I was entirely convinced that w95 only dropped in early 1996 after getting hammered by delay after delay. No idea where I got that from.

It's July 15th today, so how could it be 29 years and 1 day ago, when it released August 24th? I'm confused by your statement.

Oh, gotcha. Thanks

Of course they’d have to manufacture it before they release and sell it
