I interviewed Larry Osterman on my podcast [1] and at 19:35 he talks about his time on the Windows NT team and hanging out with Greg Zachary, the author of Show Stopper, at his house in Berkeley. There's also Helen Custer who came along with Cutler to help document the creation of NT.

Lots of other fun stories from Larry's time on that team. I kind of regret not asking him about Cutler. Maybe next time!

Larry Osterman is one of the Jeopardy questions to “Who’s worked at Microsoft longer than Bill Gates”

I worked with him at what turns out to have been towards the start of his time at Microsoft. Lots of great stories even then
