The problem with NT for multi-user use is the interface -- the filesystem and other parts have what you need (considering that one of the things they want to sell NT as is a server, this is not surprising). Citrix is working with the NT source to fix this, by providing a networked version of the interface so that users can use NT from relatively dumb machines (e.g., use a 286 as a windowing terminal for NT). The next couple of years are going to be interesting: NT, OS/2, Unixware, Windows, and a few others. I feel sorry for the people that have to decide where development resources should be committed...
