have you any idea what it is like to write windowsdrivers ???
I mean I always hear people complain about no drivers or no support for
this or that...
I mean it's all well for you guys, you know what youa re talking about,
but there are people out there who do not realise what a driver actually
IS! ( Usually you can include your local management ;) You should hear
some of those phonecalls...
Do you realise that win95, win98, NT4 and win2000 have completely
different API's and even a toatlly different architecture ?
Not to mention that all versions of their 'NDIS' stuff acts
differently... what works on one version doesn't work on the
next...etc...
( sorry, this is not personal... I just get a bit pissed when it comes
to windows drivers ;)
