-> J> 1. What does "NT" stand for?

-> "N"ew "T"echnology

Is THAT what it meant?

I was at COMDEX in Atlanta the year IBM released a new version of OS/2
while NT hadn't come out yet.  There were lots of guesses what "NT"
stood for: nice try, next time, not tested, no thanks, and so on.  They
were even giving away free "nice try" t-shirts with the new OS/2
version.
