Actually, NT was written by the same man/team that wrote VMS.  Can't
remember his name right off, but I can find it for you if you like.    But
yes, NT on a 486 is god-awful ugly.  I've seen it. <shudder>  By comparison,
Linux on my 486-66/64 mb ram ran dhcpd, httpd, sendmail, etc., and was still
faster on the gui than NT on the same speed PC.  <smug smile>

Linux is harder to set up/learn than NT, but the rewards are worth it.
