Strictly NT. Windows 2000 was much more "user friendly" but was, IMO, more
of a "server" O/S, even W2K Workstation.

Funny, it was my user OS since pre-beta.

 

Are you speaking of the NT "family", or strictly the versions of the same
codebase named "NT"?

True. but NT was not a "user" operating system. J

This is only one, tiny, aspect of implementing a security model (reading
Windows Internals by Russinovich/Solomon is highly recommended).

 

That said, Windows NT has had the same model since the first released
version (v3.1 back in 1993)

 

Cheers

Basically, that users are not admins and that everything runs in "userspace"
unless specifically run as an admin, including installation of software.

What do you understand that model to be?

Not to start a flame war or anything, but I was under the impression that
Mac OS/X was significantly *more* secure than a comparable Windows machine,
due to the *nix security model? Asking for information here, trying to
learn, not trying to start  a Mac Vs. Windows thread (there are enough of
those, that I don't need to start one! <G>)
