I'm surprised you decided to run XP at all.

I need to run my 24" monitor on the desktop, so my XP laptop will become my
new desktop, to get telnet window real estate improvements. Actually I'll use
SSH because telnet sucks on XP.

I like the very early 2.01 for news reading because I understand the file
structure, and it works for news, and of course because I've been using it
since 1996. The 2.01 browser is nearly useless even on the win95 machine
because half the sites crash it nowadays, either through an outright illegal op
or through going into memory swapping and growth mode, which it never recovers from.
But the news reader is great.

2.02 is all the site offered with working links, though.

On XP I use firefox for browsing, or IE7.0 if that doesn't work.

The only unresolved hangup in retiring the win95 machine is that I'd like to
be able to put the audio line-in audio onto the audio line-out jack. The mixer
on win95 has the line in input as one of the choices on the output mix, and XP
does not. I'm not sure how I'll replace that. Maybe a real actual physical
mixer next to the laptop, though that seems dumb.
