Short answer: yes there are differences (depends on how deep you look).


Long answer: IMO reading Net|Free documentation will help put things in

perspective.  In my experience (very limited) I found reading the code

to be best.  I understand that doesn't help when you have zero

knowledge of writing drivers though.  I flailed at it for a couple

months of and on before I had a reasonable clue.  From there I got

dangerous real quick.  It's a journey and I personally still have quite

a ways to go.  There's no short cuts.
