That's not quite true. Well, I don't know about the LanManager systems,
but I do know that WindowsNT supports symbolic links, and maybe
hardlinks. I recall creating a symbolic link on NT4.0 workstation with
the cygnus tools 'ln' command.

Trying to delete the file in Explorer.exe gave a fun dialog that the
file was a system file, and as such deleting it might lead to
undesirable results. (Nothing odd happened.)
