Breja: Apps? Windows 3.1? Did anyone call anything an "app" back then?

Barefoot_Monkey: Yes, that is what they were called most of the time back then.
Maybe on the development end of things. I never personally used app, nor did anyone I know/heard of. In my experience, most PC "end users" called them programs, sometimes applications (usually this referred to a Windows program, though), and -- in more technical contexts -- executables. I didn't really start to hear of apps until the promotion of software made specifically for phones, and later tablets, started to make that term a thing.

Of course, this might be one of those cases of regional differences in terminology, I suppose.

Ah I too remember the days of Dial Up and Win 3.1
This is...quite interesting-looking. Always neat to catch a glimpse of the past, I suppose.
