I think in fact you mean "NatWest"!  And the answer (if you really want to 
know) is "awful thanks!".

NatWest are in deep sh*t over the NT project - and in fact, IBM have taken
over from MS in running the project.  Sure, NT is still being used (as after
all, that is what the customer wanted - the primary concern) but MS credibility
in the corporate support arena has taken a severe battering.
