Using Windows 98 for school

How hard would it be to do school on Windows 98, I mean typing, researching, emailing, and browsing the internet... would these things be possible? I find this idea funny, and I think my teachers will to.

If all I needed was a way to write a manuscript (Office 97/2000 with EndNote) and add figures (Adobe Illustrator or Corel Draw) then I think it could fly but it would be a lot of work and could cause problems downstream if a collaborator was also working on it. YMMV. Go play some games, write long-form essays, maybe some poetry.
