It's not stable, but it will boot and run ... most of the time.

Pretty much my recollection of running Windows NT on x86.

NT 3.5 wasn’t too bad.

NT4 moved a lot of stuff into the kernel that wasn’t ready for prime time and we suffered for it, at least on NT Workstation.

4.0 was my first exposure to NT - I used systems running 3.5 a few times, but not enough to have any real opinion on it. I did know there had been big architectural changes, but that was all. I have no difficulty believing 3.5 was better though.
