<<Analysts here at GigaWorld IT Forum '98 advised attendees
to forgo Windows NT 5.0 and wait for a later release.

With 30 million lines of code, 85 percent of which is new, Windows NT 5.0 is likely

realization that the product won't ramp to volume until NT 6.0 because of the fear of
initial releases.">>
