I may be a little slow, but what is the point of making a clone of windows? I would think that with all the resources being spent on this that maybe they would instead try to make something better, perhaps more innovative, a different UI even.


The Windows UI is replaceable, even on Windows. That is not where the innovation is happening. Look beneath the skin - Windows has a lot of good points architecturally. There are many decent Windows programs as well. There is a lot of value to being able to support Windows without being beholden to it.

Keep up the good work, ReactOS team!
