That person was Chris Hedberg <chrished@microsoft.com>.  I didn't
announce his name originally because I hadn't asked him whether or not
he wanted to remain anonymous, but since he doesn't mind, I'm taking
this time to publicly thank him.

After weighing all the considerations, we'll be buying a new disk to
install Windows NT on so that we can test E/D under Windows NT and
also find and fix the problem with networked mounted filesystems.

My impression was that if we did a native Win32 version that one such
version would suffice for Windows '95 and Windows NT.  I can't say
I've looked into it in detail, though.  We certainly plan on a native
Windows '95 version.
