I wonder if they will use ReactOS. It is Windows-compatible.

You act like it is hard to run an OS on a computer that is not windows (hint: it is not.)

  Creating a custom OS from scratch that's somehow more secure than a system that's 40 years old will be a real interesting feat. If they base it on Linux (didn't see evidence of that but didn't get that far in to the article) then that'll give them some head start.
