    Windows 95 was a product that was probably sold in India eight or nine years ago. It is not a big deal right now. Also, theeconomictimes has many times in the past carried computer-related articles that are published in other news websites a day or two before. They have a major indian presence and very less international presence. This was actually discussed on slashdot.org after which theeconomictimes picked it up a few days later. Someone picked it up from theeconomic times and posted it on ./ Is someone here trying to draw a circle ?
