I already had my first CD-ROM drive (so futuristic!) when 95 came out. But I did install Office on Win3.1 from floppies. Soon after that I switched to OpenOffice and haven't used commercial software (other than the Windows that came with the PC) ever since.

I could be wrong, but I think I bought (or rather, my parents bought) my first CD-ROM drive for installing Windows 95. I think that might have been the very first disc I put in the drive.

I had the CD-ROM drive running with 3.1. But they only really became mainstream after 95 came out.
