    underpar writes "This zdnet article covering Microsoft's Tech Ed conference quotes one of the speakers, Mark Russinovich, as saying that Linux is becoming more and more like Windows. He cites many examples of where Linux 'copies' Windows and other operating systems. He says the only current difference is 'how windowing is handled.'"

    Hulver writes "This is an interesting technical artical describing the differences and similarities between Windows NT and Unix. The article mentions Linux, but he is fairly dismissive, and very heavily biased towards NT being the best. If you are interested in how NT works and how it compares to unix, this is a good place to start. It might even open your eyes about how NT works. " I actually thought it was quite interesting, and only an eensy bit of it seemed inflammatory. Note that it's an article about the kernels of the operating systems, not the entire operating system.
