When working on Win2k it started off still trying to support MIPS and PPC but then shipped only x86 and Alpha

I thought Win2k on the Alpha was cancelled, too, although they made a Beta. There was an article posted here on HN recently from 1999 about Microsoft cancelling Win2k on Alpha.

(Sorry for being a smartass about it.)

I remember shipping SP6 and 6a still supporting 4 arch. And we were still testing 2k on x86 and Alpha in my group (NLB). Ages ago, can't hardly remember.

And this is what I hope ReactOS will become one day, in spite of Microsoft's FUD campaigns.
