no sh*t... really..... I would never have guessed. Geez YDL have only stuck with the CentOS base since it's core was released....
Windows NT family
cough.. I win? I think so. Windows NT 3.1 I think was just a development stage and never used same with 3.5. |
Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Home Server, and Windows Server 2008 are based upon the Windows NT system, although they are not branded as Windows NT.
Partial MS-DOS compatibility was achieved via an integrated DOS Virtual Machine.
When Windows 3.0 was released in May 1990, it was eventually so successful that Microsoft decided to change the primary application programming interface for the still unreleased NT OS/2 (as it was then known) from an extended OS/2 API to an extended Windows API. This decision caused tension between Microsoft and IBM and the collaboration ultimately fell apart. IBM continued OS/2 development alone while Microsoft continued work on the newly renamed Windows NT. Though neither operating system would immediately be as popular as Microsoft's DOS or Windows products, Windows NT would eventually be far more successful than OS/2.
Microsoft hired a group of developers from Digital Equipment Corporation led by Dave Cutler to build Windows NT, and many elements of the design reflect earlier DEC experience with Cutler's VMS and RSX-11.
Sorry, you are wrong... (Cairo was cancelled: Cairo never shipped, although portions of its technologies have since appeared in other products. Projects Cancelled: Cairo · Nashville · Neptune · Odyssey · Related: OS/2)
