If you want to USB you need to upgrade to Windows 98, USB doesn't work 
properly on 95. I'm not sure, but I think USB 2.0 is only supported on 
Windows XP.

But I agree with Jims advice about a USB card, but I'd get a cheaper USB

1.0 PCI card, as there's more chance of that running on an older
Machine.
