Ha, thats a good way of saying it. Its massive, but also never gives you a absoloute answer, probably because Microsoft dont know how it works either!


The most problematic though is the ability of Windows to go into strange parts of ite 'envelope' and start acting weird. Much of the challenge if kernel deving is to keeop Windows as close to the center of its possible field of states. We call it a nondeterministic infinite state machine. Its due to its sheer complexity, and hence architectural bugs can arrise easilly, and the fact that HW is so very different from platform to platform nd can have a massive effect on the Way the kernel functions.

Its a tough job, but itf pays well, and is challenging.
Morality is indistinguishable from social proscription
