Having never met Jeff personally (or maybe I have and forgot), but he
seems a pretty smart guy to me. I read his email as a bit of 'tongue
in cheek' about device drivers. A joke in response to the "Heyyyyy I
resemble that remark" joke. I don't really believe he thinks you know
everyone at Microsoft, or how to write drivers simply because you work
there, my bet is he forgot a smiley.

(Jeff, you can correct me if I'm wrong.)
