Decision:
+INTRODUCTION
+===============
+1. Remove The entire first paragraph with the exveption of the first
+sentence.
+2. Replace with - A virtual device in its truest sense is not any different
+from a physical device. The virtual machine sees a virtual device just as a
+physical machine would see a physical one. As such, this document will treat
+virtual devices as physical devices.
+3. The purpose of ...
+4. replace rather than using boutique to rather than using vendor-specific,
+per-environment, or per-OS mechanisms.
+
+5. ADD -The categories described above are further defined as follows:
+ Straightforward: Revise last sentence to read - There aren’t any exotic
+page-flipping or COW mechanisms and it functions as a normal device.[1]
+6. Efficient: ADD to input and output (I/O),
+7. effects from both guest and (not sure but i think you should ADD host)
+device writing to the same cache
+ lines.
+8. Standard: CHANGE TO READ: Virtio makes no assumptions about the
+environment in which
+ it operates, beyond what is required in order to allow the bus to attach
+the host device to the driver on the guest. Virtio
+ devices are implemented over PCI and other buses, and earlier drafts that
+ have been implemented on other buses not included in this specification.[2]

from the specific virtio drivers: these drivers are shared with
the non-PCI implementations (currently lguest and S/390).
