If you're not a Windows user, what features would you like to see in Windows for possible assimilation?"

    Have been keeping an eye on that for a while - given that they are doing it on a shoestring it is very impressive indeed. Hopefully their recent kickstarter and associated fund-raising https://www.reactos.org/donations [reactos.org] will get this to the point of widespread usability before everyone's XP support ends. Here's to hoping anyhow

    From what I've been hearing the last few years, it sounds like every time I think they're about ready to fiiiiiiinally kick it into beta, they decide to overhaul and replace one of the major system components (Explorer, sound, USB...). And I can only assume that Microsoft will figure out a way to sue them to kingdom come and back as soon as they try to release a working product.
