Hopefully this isn’t perceived as spam mail. If it is, my apologies, but I
thought most of you would be very interested in hearing about this:

===========================
Microsoft has added approximately 30 hours of purely technical content
tailored to help driver developers and testers produce more reliable
drivers and learn about the newest driver models in the Microsoft(r)
Windows(r) 2000 and Windows Millennium Edition operating systems. Don’t
miss this opportunity to learn directly from the Microsoft engineers who
designed and implemented the device driver interfaces.

Topics to be discussed include:

· Driver installation and *.inf development tips
· Proper usage of Plug and Play IDs

support.
