win95 on a ppc?? sorry but I don't think its worth the effort. Booting from a memory card on the machine would take too long, and the resolution of the screen is WAAYY too low. But mostly I think that you wouldn't have an interface to the hardware, likeusing the modem etc.

Does anyone have a bootable floppy disk-image for me so that I can install Windows 95 on my Alpine?

Well if you search for Bochs, you will find working step by step instructions.
It's not that bad, if you have lotsof free program memory it runs pretty quick. Double clicking My Computer and it opens in a second or two.
On my device I dedicate 64MB or ram for emulation of Win95. It doesn't even slow down the device when it's in background.

i think CPU and RAM on Himalaya aren´t far enough to
worthy Emulate an PC with Windows 95
lots of People tried this...on much stronger Devices-- Fun looks different,dood!
I did tried it myself on my good old Universal (R.I.P) 2 Years ago
....i just want to say...why not use the time for laundry or sort your Screws....then its better used !
