Hi,

You didn't miss that much.

Windows NT was essentially patterned after NeXTStep, though it still
has a way to go in order to catch up. Assuming you believe that
dynamic binding is an inevitable innovation and DLLs are the
brain-dead broken mess they are, NT still has a long way to go to
catch up to where NeXTStep was. There are other issues as well that
push NT back to the cro-magon era, but dynamic binding is the issue
that always sticks in my head since it yields overall improvements in
application performance and reliability at the same time.

Thomas

Nextstep operating system is related to NT?
