Having used MacOS exclusively from roughly 93-96, it was my experience that, at that point, it was certainly not a viable alternative to Windows, especially after Win95 was released. The only industries that would touch Mac in those days were publishing/pre-press/design, and that was due to Quark being only available on the Mac. I started using Photoshop on Windows maybe in 97 and it was shocking how much better it ran on Win95.

Lord help you if you tried to use a web browser while running another application.
