Could be. It was just a rumor. I know that I had to custom write software for it because so much was missing from the API. I heard that there was a big argument about NT3 at MS, that the designers wanted to go one direction and they were being told to go another; a big corporate shoe came down and forced them to conform to the Win32 API used by Win95 thus creating NT 3.5 and then NT 3.51. That is why NT POSIX died.
