On the other side, it came with very few programs installed, so you had to install third party apps and consistency went to the trashcan once o did that. You can reach that level today but not out of the box. In terms of UI, yes, very clean UI by default. Worse UI, worse memory use, worse hackability… > Yet it remains my favourite operating system of all time, because everything else (yes, even precious Debian!) is just worse.

It also reminds me the well known Things That Turbo Pascal Is Smaller Than ( ) Hats off if you can do the same to Windows98 and shrink it to 5MB.

I was left with something like 20MB (? I assume, I don't remember exactly).

I have spent a number of days iterating moving some Windows files, restarting to see if it still boots and does the job, restoring the files if it did not. I remember I was left with something like 70MB of usable disk space and most of it was devoted to Delphi 2.
