Heh.. I can see how mad you must feel.
To tell you the truth, I have only managed to crash NT4 once and that was because the driver I tried doing something with my testing utility shouldn't have and it gave me my first "blue screen". I never did find the cause or see the same problem again. I'm not anti-any-software-company-except-my-old-company-and-the- competitors-to-my-new-company, I guess - I just distrust computer systems in general. Is that why I became a "shitty driver programmer"? :) To be fair to MS (as a fellow commercial coder), they have about a billion projects on the go with a limited supply of resources and deadlines coming out of their ears... Of course the OS system they work on can't predict EVERYTHING a secondary coder tries to do... Did I tell you the story where I managed to completely screw up the boot partition on my DEC AlphaServer down here by a small bug in the dynamically loading driver I'm working on. :) Kernel development, heh - fun! :) Jut. > -----Original Message----- > From: Simon Cooke [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, May 07, 1999 6:35 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: comp.sys.sinclair... jesus... > > > What was said?
