I never worked with any versions of NT before 4, mainly because I was mainly doing desktop support stuff until I got my MCSE cert. But it did indeed work surprisingly well considering how janky it was.

Win2k was such an improvement it wasn't even funny.

By the way, did you know that the Windows NT Resource Kit shipped with the GNU C compiler?

If I did, I've forgotten it by now. lol

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
