Windows NT ("New Technology") is a family of Operating Systems produced by Microsoft, the first version of which was released in July 1993. It was originally designed to be a powerful high-level-language-based, processor-independent, multiprocessing, multiuser operating system with features comparable to Unix. It was intended to complement consumer versions of Windows that were based on MS-DOS http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_NT
