Yep, that comparison sums it up pretty well.

The fact that wine fails to run even the simplest drivers (like USB drivers or stuff) supports your statement. However, this restriction probably only applies to the non-memory part of the address space, doesn't it? I must be able to write into the accumulator for my processor from user mode for sure.

Ya, I was referring to MMIO registers, only.

Okay, that makes sense.

So sorry I didn't get to thank you for the post after you wrote it neobrain, I really do appreciate it. Unfortunately I was out of town on a little mini vacation for about 4 days, and when I go out of town I make sure not to bring the internet with me, after all, the whole reason I do stuff like that is to get away from the normal day to day routines.

It was well written and very informative.
