Beg to differ!

NT 3.anything was the equivalent of my ex-girlfriend's Peugeot: It's ugly, but it sure is slow!

And what was the "new technology" that gave NT its "name"? Protected memory spaces...Something they had on 16-bit PDP-11's 20 years before, ferchrissakes! Big fuckin innovation there, all right! Finally using the feature (and poorly at that) that Intel had been puting into their processor chips for the preceeding 8 fuckin years! Right fine piece of "innovation", that...yeppir!

Who you crappin, box?!?
