Isn't that roughly like saying you're the best belly dancer at the South Pole?

LOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!

I "use" NT as my desktop. So I voted for that one. But, I'm a quarter-time Sun Solaris unix admin as my "job" (if you can call this a job. Well, I guess it's a job, but it's sure not "work". LOLOL). So, consequently, I know more about the Unix machines than my desktop. NT seems pretty nice as long as you don't "stress" it too much.

That sounds exactly like what I tell people about NT: "It's rock solid and stays up 100% of the time... as long as you don't load any software on it."

Yeah I would think NT is for both 4.0 and 5.0 (aka Win2K).

Did anyone ever notice the splash screen while starting up says "Built on NT Technology"? Duh...NT = New Technology. So what they are saying is...Built on New Technology Technology.

Well, if that's the reasoning, then Win95 = Win98 = Win98se

True. That's why Microsoft calls them Win9X.
