SoftWindows 95, version 5.0. The interface Looking at the interface of SoftWindows 5, it is very obvious that the RealPC project had a lot of influence. In fact, the only difference between the setup interface on SoftWindows 5 and RealPC 1.0 is the name at the top of the requester. One thing that I never really liked about Softwindows 3.0-4.0 was the way in which the system settings were organized. Options are organized in a push button interface on the left of a requester, and the details of those options are listed on the right side of the requester.
Memory allocation is organized in a much more effecient and straightforward manner as well.
The bigger this cached area, the better SoftWindows will perform. SoftWindows takes the guesswork out of the game by presenting the user with a fuel gauge-style meter. With the meter all the way to the right, the emulator is configured for the best possible performance, given the total available memory that it has available to it to begin with. The interface design enhancement doesn't stop at the Setup requester. Sure, the user can define which folder will appear as a PC drive using the Setup options.
