Linux Kernel: Moving Closer To Windows?
Talkback "Windows, said Russinovich, owes a great deal to a project led by David Cutler, one of the creators of Digital's VMS Unix operating system" No, VMS is a completely different OS from Unix. The fellow who wrote this article clearly knows nothing at all.

Linux Kernel: Moving Closer To Windows?
Talkback Dave Cutler was a VMS contributor in the early days of VMS but that was at around version 3 or 4 and still living on a VAX. Cutler wanted to port VMS over as a desktop under projects Prism and Mica but it was cancelled so he essentially did it at...

Linux Kernel: Moving Closer To Windows?
Talkback "one of the creators of Digital's VMS Unix operating system" I guess DEC management would have been surprised to find that they had a "VMS Unix" os. The most clueless phrase in this whole piece.
