Huh? What is a "user" operating system?

True... but NT was not a "user" operating system. :)

This is only one, tiny, aspect of implementing a security model (reading 
Windows Internals by Russinovich/Solomon is highly recommended).

That said, Windows NT has had the same model since the first released version 
(v3.1 back in 1993)

Basically, that users are not admins and that everything runs in "userspace" 
unless specifically run as an admin, including installation of software.
