Re: wasn't really 64 Bit

Alphas on 32-bit NT were really slow.... one reason for the demise of DEC.

This of course was until Windows 2000... After a row Digtal laid off a team of engineers working on 64-bit NT, after which Microsoft cancelled the project which was still in Alpha stage. Somewhat later they started a port to IA64 (Itanic), which was released with much dealy.
