It's a great article. I was the principal consultant for IDS in that era, and there is a staff alumni group active on Facebook where I posted this link.

I disagree with a number of the claims in the article, especially that Windows NT was based on VMS when in fact it was based on and developed using OS/2. There is a good and detailed book about this:
