Re: UNIX= Grand-daddy of all modern operating systems?
Wasn't there a thread somewhere recently (maybe here on PLUG-discuss?) stating that the original name for [what eventually became] Windows NT, was OS/2 3.0? I think it was partly based on some BSD or something. Plus, I think it served as the baseline for many later versions of Windows (e.g. W 2000 etc.) -- Mike Schwartz Glendale AZ [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] On 6/29/07, Dan Lund [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Msdos was fashioned from cp/m, apple macos from a xerox parc project, windows from macos, os/2 from a posix environment, winnt 3.x from os/2 and VMS.
