Gee everybody sure posted some helpful replies didn't they.  What a bunch
of jerks.

Anyways, I also have Applewin, and don't have any problems with it.  If the
text is "blurred" on the emulator, chances are it would be blurred on a
real //e also (by "blurred" I assume you mean colored, funny-looking
letters).  What happens when you change the screen to monochrome (green)
mode?  Applewin does a very good impersonation of a //e, warts and all.  I
use my mouse as a joystick without too much trouble.

OTOH, you can always give APP2PC a try.  It's a DOS (not a windows)
program, but runs OK under Win95.  It's *much* faster than Applewin,
emulates a //+, //e, or //c if you have the proper ROM images, and also
supports virtual "hard drives" in slot 7 along with virtual floppy disk
files.

Also, there is XGS, a //gs emulator that runs on Win95.  It's a very early
beta (alpha really, as it's not feature complete, let alone bug free), but
works OK and runs the (limited) stuff I've tried on it.  It's *really* cool
to see System 6.01 running on this pentium PC.
 
Good luck.
