is possible this may have been a version of NT which had some rudimentary
OS/2 text mode support, but was not based on OS/2. I recall that NT had
support for x86, PPC, and Alpha CPUs, so it would not be hard to believe
that microsoft might have toyed with porting it to a DEC platform. But I
see no listing for NT for the PDP-11 on Wikipedia.
Weren't there also ports of OS/2 and NT for MIPS? For NT, that one seems
fairly well-known, but for OS/2 I'm positive it exisited too (at least in
vaporware).
