Being relatively new to Mac OS, I was just wondering if any of the past OS installments had any real flops (similar to the disaster in the Windows realm, known as "ME") Thanks!

I personally don't think in the OS realm there has been any major flops... there have however been some hardware flops definitely like the Apple Newton, Macintosh Portable, Macintosh TV, Motorola ROKR and of course the Apple Pippin.
Say what??
The Newton was a HUGE hit! VERY popular, particularly with managers and doctors. And it would have gone on being a big hit if Palm hadn't come up with a more efficient handwriting technique that worked more consistently ... by the time Apple improved the handwriting recognition, everyone had moved to Palm.
The Pippin, likewise, was most certainly not a "flop," since it was never released. It never had a chance to be judged a flop OR a hit.
Now the G4 Cube ... THAT was a flop. Very VERY cool for its time, but overpriced.
