Just found this...has anyone else taken a look at it?

It looks like it will be a good alternative for those of us who "like" to run Windows!

I havent tried it but ReactOS was one of the things I considered when dropping Windows. But the "ReactOS 0.3.4 is still in under heavy development (alpha stage) and is not ready for everyday use" threw me off. I mean its been made since 1996 and still not ready? Shrug. Maybe they just say that, and it really works great. Dunno, but hopefully it goes to Beta and then I'll try giving it a run.

I like Ubuntu. Its close enough to Windows to satisfy me. Plus, there is a nice wine called Ubuntu from South Africa. I can also run Windows programs with Wine. I can drink wine and use my computer at the same time, and not have to use different words for each subject. Think of the time that saves!

:lol:

Wine, eh?


ReactOS has the beta version scheduled for release this year. It certainly looks like they are speeding up development, so I think we could be in the final beta by next year.
