That question was very much tongue-in-cheek but nevertheless I much appreciate the straightfaced reaction. You might be surprised by WfW311's TCP/IP stack - as far as I'm aware, it was more or less lifted in one piece from BSD, to the point that it supported IP forwarding. For Windows 95, either a new IP stack was implemented or the existing one reworked to make a point of being desktop, not server, software, and IP forwarding was dropped. Not that this has anything to do with I/O Completion Ports, most likely. I assume they're some kind of asynchronous callback mechanism?
