Come to think of it, in terms of computing power, the ESP32 is probably more powerful than what you used before 2000.
I always compare it to a Amstrad PC1512, given its memory.

Still even with limitations, there was a ton of stuff we could do in MS-DOS, let alone a more powerful system with dual core and built-in networking.
