Current discussion in comp.os.vms indicates that the kernel of
NT was found to be quite compatible with the Mica research
project David Cutler had worked on as his last job at DEC.
Even compatible down to the source code comments. Rumors
have circulated for years regarding some out-of-court
settlement between DEC and Microsoft.
Cutler was the Project Leader for VMS V1, but after that
he worked on other software within DEC. V1 was before
VMS had clusters. The current version is V7.3.
