> Write a kernel driver on Linux and NT and you'll see how much more superior the NT I/O subsystem is.

I wrote Windows drivers and file systems for about 10 years, and Unix drivers and file systems also for about 10 years.

I'd rather practice substance agriculture for the rest of my life than deal with Windows drivers again.
