NT 3.1 through 3.51 were basically microkernel. Get a copy of _Operating System Concepts_, by Abraham Silberschatz and Peter Baer Galvin, which as well as being a great introduction to operating system design, has three chapters devoted to Classic Unix, NT, and Linux respectively.
The big screwup was putting the graphics code back in the kernel with 4.0.
Anyway, this isn't about Linux :)

NT is many things, but Microkernel is not one of them :>
