I don't know, 25 years ago most people didn't even have a personnal computer at home yet they were forced to learn to use desktops from windows, os2, solaris cde, mac os or sometimes just an arcane text based terminal. Not so long ago people were still working mostly with a fullscreen curse based window from a telnet client.

One third of households had computers by 1997

Most of those were Windows PCs. OS/2 never took off for home users.
Schools were using either Windows or a few were using Macs - both running MS Office.
