NT is often touted as a "very advanced" operating system. Why is that? What made NT better than Unix, if anything? And is that still the case?

    One of?

    I’m going with the largest, by a huge margin. Unix and it’s descendents run everything. Even MS uses it for some things.

    Unix has been around since 1969-ish, that’s 20 years before NT.

    And I’ve use NT every day since it came out.

      I don’t consider Linux based os’s Unix, which takes most servers and android out of the running. Unix might still be bigger, idk
