Tired of endless Windows security problems? Intrigued by Linux's power but discouraged by its complexity? Tempted by Mac OS but not thrilled with the hardware cost? If so, you might want to investigate the growing bunch of hobbyist OSes -- Syllable, SkyOS, Haiku, MenuetOS, Visopsys, ReactOS and others. Syllable is perhaps the most promising of them all; it's a maturing open source desktop OS with an evolving kernel & device driver range, and is targeted at the home/small-office user.

I used to agree... until I used MacOS. Now Windows feels lame and clunky in the same ways most OSS GUIs feel to me. If they want something to model, it should be MacOS and not Windows, IMHO. However, the LOOK need not be cloned. Just the functionality. The look can change and be whatever. I don't care as long as it isn't too ugly. Its the FEEL that is important.
