Who told you that Mach 5 was 5000 mph !!! ?
Conventionally, the speed of sound used for this kind of comparison is ~340 m/s (sea level, normal pressure and temperature). This makes something like 3800 mph !
And the value Mach 1 is implicitly expressed under these conditions!
Useless... !
You must write from the other side of the atlantic! SMS have been part of our digital cell phones for 6 years or so !! What America discovers today is not necessarily modern. ( I think I received my first smart card in 1990, examples are countless...)
Guess what... it's the same thing. If the drivers are crash NT regularly then something is wrong with the product available to consumers.
Where do this comment lead ?
Why not blame the hardware itself while your at it ?
Trying to spread that "Crashes once a week" is a feature of w2k is just exposing your lack of technical understanding of what is going on. No OS is expected to prevent a kernel mode driver to crash the WHOLE machine. That's precisely where the strength of KMode lies !
So What ?
You were probably simply using a brain-damaged kernel driver !!!! Nothing to do with NT itself ! Last time I checked I had not rebooted my dual proc w2k system for 47 days! (I am developing real-time 3D and real-time broadcast direct-to-disk video engines with a lot of multi-threading)

>> I hated NT and its crashing every day!
