For all intents and purposes, Windows basic layout ain't changed since
1993; and they're re-using code that's even older - from 1991...hmm...go
figure...

...and if something lasts for 20-30 years, there's got to be something
good about it, don't ya reckon?

UNIX => multi-user OS that developed from a multi-user OS
WindowsNT => pseudo-multi-user OS developed from a single-user OS

(and I stress PSEUDO because it does not multi-task as does *NIX or
variants thereof)
