- Moreover, debugging device drivers is a difficult skill as it often involves monitoring hardware itself - which by definition behaves in a non-deterministic way.
Um. Hardware is nondeterministic? Am I missing something here, or is that a bit on the wrong side? - Jkominek Revision as of 04:00, 23 October 2002
- yeah, its not like we're writing device drivers for brains or anything. Jeeez.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Hfastedge (talk • contribs) Revision as of 04:14, 23 October 2002.

[edit] File system drivers
I find it strange to talk of file systems managers as drivers, since "A device driver [...] is a computer program that enables another program [...] to interact with a hardware device. By extension, you could potentialy call any service a driver...
- FSDs are developed using the same methodologies and kits as "device" drivers, at least in the Microsoft world. In fact, the filesystem kit is a superset of the driver development kit. --—The preceding unsigned comment was added by dispensa (talk • contribs) 04:00, 14 October 2005 (UTC).

[edit] Link Cleaning
I just cleared most of the spam I want some else to look at the remaining two links. Please let me know if they don't belong. I'll be back in few days to see if any of the deleted references magically return.--Reeves87gmailcom 06:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
