I've been very interested in ReactOS for several years now, as I've wanted to replace WindowsXP on my desktop with something more open and extensible. Unfortunately, I have since upgraded to Windows Vista, Windows 7, and now Windows 8. So I am not sure that ReactOS is going to be a viable option for me anymore. But now I think that I am not in the target audience of ReactOS at all. But rather, it is intended for businesses which for some reason are stuck using WindowsXP but would like to switch to an open alternative that is still being patched with security updates regularly. This is a reasonable and generous plan, and I applaud the ReactOS team for their work towards this effort.
