"Windows NT 4.0 will generate $billions in upgrades. NT is the business upgrade of choice. It's a true client-server operating system backed by the largest software company in the world." Try and remember that Win NT 4.0 has limited Direct X support and no support for the Microsoft Direct 3-D API. NT 4.0 is extraordinarily limited relative to Win 95 when it comes to the utilization of the latest video hardware and multimedia equipment. NT is not yet truly suitable for generating the type of multimedia extravaganzas one can create with an OS like Win 95. I personally don't expect Win NT to catch on until the next iteration, due sometime in early '98. Presuming Microsoft adheres to its own schedule for once, the next version of Win NT will contain the missing multimedia extensions and support for the Direct 3-D API. Jonathan
