I never got the hype about Windows when it came out. It felt cumbersome, sluggish and just a resource hog preventing me from allocating more memory to the programs I actually wanted to use.
Indeed, the real hype for me happened in 1996, when I got my hands on a set of Slackware Linux installation floppies. That was love at first sight.
wow! Early beginnings of an apparently for ever unpleasant Steve Ballmer. Did people really buy stuff because some maniac yelled at them and told them to do so?
