Oh really?  What do you call the prominent Os/2 - WorkplaceOS kernels in
existence?  What kernel structure do you think NT looked at.  NeXTStep,
while not a great success, still exists heavily, and of course uses it
religiously.

Since the next version of Os/2 (and in fact, the betas recently released)
depends on that mach subsystem for the kernel, I hardly call 5 million
people using it as jumping the mach boat.

As regards your reply in the first place, this is a development group,
not a discussion group, where flames, be they incorrect or correct, should
be withheld for those of us trying to accomplish something other than
a lot of net traffic regarding a CDROM that really all we want is
information on, not MicroSoft Hype.  Personal comments are not necessary

... nor wanted.
