USB support: Little or none in W95; W98SE provided Plug and Play USB support, meaning you could plug USB peripherals into your PC's USB port without rebooting. W98SE provided better graphics for GAMING SINCE it was built on DirectX 6 technology. and supported MMX technology and AGP for video cards. W98SE provided better multiple monitor support, allowing you to expand your work or games across multiple monitors. Internet Connection Sharing: not present in W95; was part of W98SE. Application launch time: "36% faster" with W98SE. Windows Update: automated updates were part of W98SE, but not W95. Windows NetMeeting, which could be used to "see, talk, and work" with family, friends, and colleagues, was part of W98SE, but not W95.

It depends, though, really.
