"There will still be millions of copies of Office 95, 97, XP, 2000, 2003, and 2007 out there that people will be able to run on ReactOS."

99.999% of which runs on legal copies of Windows which they got when they bought the computer. That's the problem with ReactOS - ppl who switch from Windows to another OS do so because they want something else than Windows, not because they save money. It's a sad fact that MS has this kind of market power, but it's been the way of things for 15+ years and will only get worse, unless Linux gains critical mass on the desktop (which is years away I think, if at all)
