RE: OT NT2K vs Unix.

:-) True enough.

 

Ok, I'll restate like this

 

Datacenter ( a copy of Unix, according to old style Unix'ers ) will decimate

other brands of Unix in 5 years.....

The same prediction was made at least 5 years ago. At the rate Microsoft is going, Windows will be a direct form of Unix. It becomes more like it with every release.

Yea, but......

Win2K Datacenter will just decimate Unix. I predict that, in
5 years, there will be two or three Unix vendors, fighting over
the 45% of the market that DataCenter hasn't eaten.

Close. It's Dave Cutler. There's too much old DOS/Windows backward
compatibility for WinNT/2000 to achieve stability like VMS despite Cutler's
leadership.

I knew VMS and you, Mr. NT, are no VMS!

NT is based on VMS (talk about a real OS) and if my
memory is good the guy's name is Cutter.

Do I win a toaster ? a microwave oven ? a palm-pilot ?
