Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 versus UNIX

by John Kirch, Networking Consultant and Microsoft Certified
Professional(Windows NT)

Last update: 1 July 1998 

Here's an excerpt from the Executive Summary:

"Why Windows NT Server 4.0 continues to exist in the enterprise
would be a topic appropriate for an investigative report in the
field of psychology or marketing, not an article on information
technology. Technically, Windows NT Server 4.0 is no match for
any UNIX operating system, not even the non-commercial
BSDs or Linux. A manager is not expected to have the technical
expertise of a systems administrator with 15 years of industry
experience. There is no shame in not having the facts, only in
being ignorant of such facts, which will in the end, cost your
employer, and eventually, all consumers money. The aim of this
article is to give you these facts, and prove that they are
facts, because facts are not debatable." 

Later,

Jim S.
