Yep. But the fact that Cutler came from DEC says nothing about how portable
the OS he helped write based on his experience was. People give them crap
for "stealing" VMS, but when you work at that level, your experience is why
you get hired.
Also, I think the XBox360 runs a version of Windows ported to a PowerPC, so
I think it's more ambiguous than you might think.
