Yes! Entirely! The BIG advantage of the NDIS-6 driver is the established interface makes it possible to readily reverse-engineer it, i.e., find out how it works. Many of the network drivers use the same hardware core (ne). It's the extra stuff like the transciever interface that the NDIS drivers will expose.
