For us, the biggest reason that we havent converted (the users, Ive been on 95 for months) to Win95 is that our development tool vendor (its not informix) hasnt had a supported and fully functional version for Win95. 95 is a huge improvement over 3.1 and I would have changed months ago if I could have.
