I have a Fall '93 developer preview of NT 3.1 which

files in the SDK which describe this piece of history. I was just
going to check if it wasn't the MC88000 that was briefly considered
as the primary target after i860, but before MIPS R4000 (which I
recall being the primary target for most of the development phase
before the first efforts to bring it up on ia32), but I seem to have
temporarily misplaced the disc.
Let's see NT supported x86, Alpha, MIPS, and what was the other
family? I want to say the 4th family was something from Sony, but
can't remember. Except for x86 the other three were basically one
vendor support I think (granted Alpha was a couple others).
