Windows NT 3.1 SDK

This came on a CD with a full copy of Windows NT 3.1 workstation. As far as I remember they gave these things away all over the place as promo items, as NT 3.1 was more of a freebie, then a sold product back then. The SDK did include the command line compiler, but it felt far more clunky (esp regarding linking) then the Visual C++ 1.0 version.
