I found the following excerpt interesting:

"Microsoft's main server software, Microsoft Windows NT 3.5, for instance, is certified under the federal security standard known as Federal Information Processing Standard 140-1, said Quazi Zaman, advanced technology manager for Microsoft Federal Systems of Washington, D.C. The newest version of Microsoft's server operating system, called Microsoft Windows NT 4.0, is undergoing certification and is expected to be certified "in the next three months," Zaman said."

My understanding is that only a very truncated version of NT 3.5 (e.g. with networking disabled) is certified. It's pretty misleading to imply anything more than that. Also note that 3.5 is not 3.51 is not 4.0 is not Win2000.

JMHO.
