Notable discoveries

Some discoveries I've made that seemingly no one else brought up.

• The real RTM date for Windows 95, being 14 July 1995, as opposed to the incorrect date of 15 August 1995 formerly on Wikipedia.
• Title bar gradients in Windows 98 build 1387
• Windows 98 build 1525 already has the new icons as in the retail build, but are hidden
• "Home Edition" branding in Windows XP build 2465 (well, at least as far as how little this was known about until I stepped in)
