Yep, mine looked about like that I guess. I never really looked at the folders in the Poser runtime folder, just saw them through the library in Poser. But I certainly can relate to not being able to find anything when I was a newbie to Poser.
I got Poser in the Spring of 2004 I think. I was so intimidated by the fact that I had these really, really long menus in Poser and I coudln't find anything. Also, to me a "texture" should have been applied in the material room and not from a Pose folder in the pose room. That really messed me up.
It took me literally 7 or 8 months to figure out poser and actually make a render of a figure. A few months after that I learned that you could make subfolders in the library folders and organized my content that way. But I still had a hard time finding stuff. It was then I learned about external runtimes and started with 2 or 3 of those, but kept going back to the 1 runtime and subfolders. One day after a reformat I created external runtimes again and forced myself to get used to them. I was so tempted to dump them back into the main Poser runtime. Eventually I got used to it and each reformat saw me splitting up my runtimes into more and more.
