Does Linux not support NIS?

"No centralized security - users must manually synchronize user
accounts across servers"

I like the statement 37% less expensive...26% less expensive...27%
less expensive.  Where do they come up with these numbers?

"Extensive internal and external beta testing to ensure binary
compatibility across services and applications."

So THATS why it took me 4 hours to figure out how to get a dos program
running on NT4 that worked out of the box on a 95 machine.

OOOH GUI BASED TOOLS!!

Just how does NT have "Broad language support inlcuding java" when it
has no C compiler, primitive batch scripting, no java compiler, no
perl...
