Customer Reviews

Good for people who no nothing about network drivers

The previous reviews are too hard. The book provides a good introduction to network device drivers for those people who no nothing about the subject. While it does talk about NDIS 2 and NDIS 3, it provides good background information about the NDIS model and its development. While it does talk about older networking implementations on DOS, OS/2, and UNIX for example, it does demonstrate how the OSI model is implemented in these different environments. This is the books strength, not its weakness.One thing that I think is ridiculous is the price: [$$$] is too .... [$$$] is more like it. Buy a used copy if you want to understand the basic networking models of the aforementionedsystems.
