    It was like someone in Redmond was trying to make the most condescending desktop environment possible. “I want it to shove Saturday Evening Post in between the user and Windows 3.1.”

      At the time they were going with the idea that computer were too complicated for “regular people” and that they needed a very dumbed down interface to reach the masses. It was released at the same time as Windows 95, but it really feels like it was made for Windows 3.1, which it also supported. It was just such an insultingly bad product.
