The userland win32 API might be rather unpleasant but I was surprised to learn to driver interface in the kernel is actually quite nice, and isn't too dissimilar to FreeBSD in some ways. In terms of performance Windows-based machines have made it into the Top500 list of supercomputers, so at the high end performance must be acceptable at least. -- Bruce Cran _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
