RE: [PHP] Why PHP ? - devil's advocate

In fact it was: it contains all the technologies of NT including everything that was never possible to include in it, due the bugs. If these bugs were resolved, let's say, 3 years ago then we would have Win2K in commerce yet in 1998. No, wait.... We are forgetting what the word *commercial* means.... Sorry, I made a mistake it would still be released in 2000, since 98 was already selling WELL, .. in fact so well that they even released 98 *sEcOnD EdItIoN* how sweet.... that's my whole point. P.S: I don't work at Microsoft, but used to work at Intel, I met some people from MS and heard many entertaining stories from then. P.S2: About Win2K release: I read it somewhere a year ago. I think you can find few articles about what I was saying here if you'd search AllTheWeb well.

That's taking the anti-MS sentiment a bit too far, IMHO. Windows 2000 is just NT5. I don't think it was invented 5 years ago, as that would place it in parallel development with Win95. Jason
