- "I know the Government is buying NT in quantity. Although I
- have not personally used either of these two Posix features on NT, both
- are documented in the SDK under the Posix directory.
- The major problem with Posix on NT is that you don't get Posix
- functionality and windows funtionality in the same process.
- But as far as running Posix applications, my limited experience
- is that they do work fine."
