The same can be said about a lot of companies in the 1st web bubble. pets.co for example

Actually, a lot of 'experiments' in every technological wave have failed

You remember Windows 98 but doesn't remember OS/2 or BeOS. Google but not Altavista.

The PC survived but not the Amiga or other computer manufacturers besides Apple (and even then).

I was even puzzled by win98...what was special about it? It was basically win95 2.0 iirc.

I'm probably misremembering the specifics, but i think you could have up to 24 open sockets. That was pretty special.
