> *nix started from a better _initial_ posture as it was multi-user, permissioned, and network-aware from the start (vs. corporate MS-DOS => single user => GUI => networked)

Windows NT started as a multi-user, permissioned, and network-aware OS. The team that built NT came from DEC, not the MS-DOS team.

Windows Me was the last version of Windows that had any form of DOS underpinnings.
