Users cheer slower beta cycle for Windows NT 5.0
Windows NT 5.0 beta testers are urging a slow, steady course in developing the next-generation client/server OS amid a rising tide of mixed signals from Microsoft about the product's readiness. The most official word about the release of Beta 3 of NT 5.0 came recently from Microsoft chief financial officer Greg Maffei, who said the beta edition would ship in the first quarter of 1999.
