"Until the release date for NT 5.0 started slipping, Microsoft had hoped to establish the Distributed Component Object Model and the Microsoft Transaction Server as de facto standards before Enterprise JavaBeans architectures could take hold. "

Its probably a little more pervasive than that as well. DCOM has to compete with CORBA and there is also the issue of CIM (common information architecture) coming up.

Its difficult to fight on all fronts at once.

NT5 by itself is a huge undertaking even for Microsoft. The development of distributed system management tools, transaction servers and monitors, high availability software, object tools, as well as trying to beat everyone with applications must be very taxing...

The IBM AIX effort is a good example of how difficult it is to get everything done. Even though they build their PowerPC stuff in house.

Microsoft should be feeling the pinch right about now.
