My travels with WDF

The continuing story of a boy, his dog and their discovery of the world outside...of WDM.
This.Is.Post.Version.1.4.5.23.9.54.2.1a

Yes, I'm alive, just have been very busy lately. 

I just had to share this because I was joking with a friend of mine not long ago about all the iTunes updates after the iPhone was released. (Aside:  Yes, I own an iPod.  No they do not fire us for using them.  But it would be a career limiting move to be in the presences of Mr. Gates with one).  Anyway, I was joking that I was going to wait for version 7.4.2.5.2.1.34.5.1b before I upgraded because 7.4.2.5.2.1.34.5.1a had playback issues when I selected 24bit.  He then informed me that 7.5 was coming soon, and I told him I'd wait for 7.5.4 which was going to be out a couple of days after 7.5.

So any how,  I was fiddling around with some of the advanced settings on my FiOS router / modem last weekend and decided to check if there were any firmware updates;

 

What happened to versions 4.0.16.1.55.0.10.4.1 and 2?  I'm all for isolating and indicating versioning, but holy buckets guys!

This was all made even more humorous as there was a discussion internally not long ago about how to version the Frameworks.   Should there be a 1.5.1 or should we just call it 1.6 at that point.  Personally I'd love to have the Product Support guys suffer with the subsequent "that version isn't supported on your OS, you need Framework version 1.9.5.11.25.34².A∩B.5.6a".  But I'm evil like that.

WDK RC1 is close to complete so the release of the Hybrid Drive is UPON US ALL!!!

Mass Effect is great.  If you loved Knights of the Old Republic, you'll adore Mass Effect.

More later
