    Since at that time these shits weren’t really normalized, I can imagine some people would actually like these things and maybe even use them. It would have feel… kinda modern? If that makes sense… (tho when I first saw XP after using 95 and 98 in my life at that point, it felt absolutely super-duper modern x3)

    I like this image - it is really nicely done. I don’t like what it represents, but the image itself is decent.

      I remember seeing AOL on Win3.11 (I had been using telnet, pine, lynx.) and it looked like a bunch of spam ads.

        And Bonzi even was a 3rd party thing. Now imagine that shit, just built into the system by that time. 😅

        Heck, even MSN Browser was a thing and I’m pretty sure just because it said “Good afternoon” or some shit when you launched it.
