        I figured you'd disagree; again, I'm biased, so I'll hold it to be
a waste of both of our times to argue.  If you get something worthwhile
going, so much the better.  I will be the first to fall down at worship at
your feet for satiating the device-driver writers :)

        No, not at all.  I wish you luck, and running on a second platform
can only help expose problems.

        Should have been more than 6, IIRC, but whatever.  Have you tried
the native-code equivalent program just to make it's not a problem with
OSKit?
