- Steve, I'm disappointed in you. The above is clearly FUD - the fact
- that the Windows NT installation that you tested didn't perform well
- for you says nothing about all the other machines in the world, unless
- you feel that your single PC is somehow representative of PCs
- everywhere. I also suspect that your copy of Windows NT was poorly
- installed - I've been using Windows NT for months now and have only
- crashed once. And it takes less that 90MB of disk space for me.
