I had (have) a copy of Photoshop 2.0 for Mac. Came with one of the
scanners I bought when I had a IIci. My recollection is layers came
with 2.5. I also have an old Illustrator, maybe 5, I can't recall now.
I haven't run it in years, which probably helps keep it as my favorite
vector graphics editor.

Jobs say how much better something worked on Next, so the guy brought in
his Next Cube and would show Jobs how it worked. Memories distort
reality.

illustrator, on both mac and windows, has been and still is the

that doesn't change anything.
photoshop in the 1990s had features that the gimp still does not have,
and according to the gimp's roadmap, never will.
inkscape is still playing catch-up.
illustrator, photoshop and other adobe products set the standard to
which others are compared.
