C# for Windows device drivers? Huh? How are you even going to handle an ISR (interrupt service routine, IRQ) or a DPC with C#? Or DMA, etc.?

Disclaimer: I've worked with Windows device drivers, and there's no way I can see you could use C# there. Maybe in UMDF, but you certainly can't do anything timing sensitive in user mode. And drivers are often timing sensitive.

Not sure where you got that from anything I said.
