Here's an e-mail from a newly-installed NT customer

I'm running NT on a HPKyak XA....Microsoft WORD is FLASHING an
open document and the icon on my toolbar.

My mouse can't do anything with it.... can't close it; can't open it.... This is a controlled and IS-approved installation here at *****, so I don't think we can give this crash any excuses for wierdo installations....

I'm going to have to REBOOT to get my computer back....

Plus, I lost my edits to my document.

Yeah, rudedog, really good quality control from Redmond. Maybe
it's because of all those poorly-written and difficult to control
3rd party products.

Sure, NT is a generation down from VMS, except it's evolving in
the wrong direction (de-generation). VMS was pretty successful,
wasn't it??? I see it ALL OVER THE PLACE with ALL THOSE MACHINES
FROM DEC that everyone seems to use these days. Gee, it's almost
as popular as MVS.
