- krylon 5y agoI thought Win2k on the Alpha was cancelled, too, although they made a Beta. There was an article posted here on HN recently from 1999 about Microsoft cancelling Win2k on Alpha. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27603531 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27603531 (Sorry for being a smartass about it.)
- edoceo 5y agoI remember shipping SP6 and 6a still supporting 4 arch. And we were still testing 2k on x86 and Alpha in my group (NLB). Ages ago, can't hardly remember.
