I think it had extremely early and rudimentary audio support, but 
nothing like VSTs or other plugins yet.  However, I was just comparing 
basic MIDI to basic MIDI performance.  It used to kill me that 
Rosegarden would barely function on a 1 GHz machine for doing straight 
up data pumping through a hardware MIDI interface, which is where this 
old comparison comes from.

Even then, the comparison wasn't fair.  That machine and OS wasn't doing 
any heavy multitasking or low latency anything.  The graphics across the 
board, and especially in Cakewalk, were vastly less sophisticated, and 
on and on.
