i think it is in your head, it was not easy, and most of the apps that you needed would not work there, i even had a lindows and that had the same problems,
webapps where nonexistend, and while sure you could maybe find a decent replacement for one app you could not for others. everything was hacky, and there is no chance in hell that average person would run this.
and then xp came and it was the better in in everything from 98/ME.
