Re: But ...

"NT was originally designed by Cutler to be multiuser but Gates insisted that be removed. He wanted to sell a full Windows to each user not one copy per group."

Sadly Cutler's intentions & design are totally irrelevant when it comes to actually deploying and using NT/Windows. According to some of Microsoft's bios on Cutler he designed RSX-11M & VMS by himself (clue: he didn't).
