NT like OS's

Are you sure you want to do this?  What about all the dll's?  I think it 
advisable to set down goals and functioanl specs before embarking on such 
an adventure.  I also think that you should look at all the opportunities 
including L4-Linux from Dresden. <l3-hackers at os.inf.tu-dresden.de>

I also have a mature, fault-tolerant operating system, originally written 
for IBM mainframe, which is quite portable.  Hadn't planned on porting it 
to alpha, but it is a possibility, particularly since later alphas 
understand Big Endian.
