Do you think that NT4 is considered abandonware?

It's been mostly knocked off of the support charts and it IS 8-9 years old...

I have legal copies... and the beta that lets you use it on 10 computers... but it'd be nice to see NT4 finally die so as the people who need it can use it...

Well, service pack 6a was released in 2000, so it's not exactly that old. And I know of a lot of banks and businesses that use it still even in their new systems - especially in the serverdom, unfortunately.

Not to mention that Micro$cr@p is still holding on for dear life to 95/98. It seems like if you still want to use it, they think you should still pay for it. Ahh - will they never learn?
