Encarta was incredible. I was in high school in the 90s but we didn’t have internet at home, just at school. I came 3rd in a school district computer competition (it wasn’t programming but doing tasks in Word and some other general stuff). Anyways long story short a copy of Encarta was my prize and I was blown away. It felt like an “offline internet” to me. Spent the whole summer pretty much reading everything. Good times.
