Windows copied much of its structure from VMS.
That's saying it incorrectly, face it.
Cutler and the developers he brought with him to Microsoft definitely reused concepts and designs (but hopefully no code) from VMS *that they created in the first place*.
What Alan doesn't say (or maybe know) is in the 90s Digital added features to VMS that were introduced by Microsoft in NT.
So "copying" goes both ways.
