The TCP/IP stack may have been rewritten for NT3.5; however the NT4 stack was problematic for heavy network use and the Windows 2000 TCP/IP stack fingerprinted as a BSD stack....

Times have changed.

Personally I think it would be great if a shared driver model allowed well written drivers to be shared across the range of open source operating systems.
