Trying to replace the "Cutler is God" myth with "Windows is OpenVMS
Reimplemented" fact. Don't believe me? Then watch the Rob Short video:

p.s. Rob Short started at DEC in Ireland then came to Massachusetts to
work on PDP-11/05 and VAX-11/780. he was also working with Cutler when
they were shut down by DEC management in the late 1980's. Rob ends up
being a (technical) managing VP at Microsoft. What the video to see
how much of an effect the exDECies had on both Microsoft and Intel.
