Windows Alex Ionescu, one of the lead developers behind the ReactOS project, has published a detailed article on the XP/Vista application compatibility system. "For the last few days, I've been intimately becoming aquainted with a piece of technology in Windows XP and Vista that rarely gets the attention it deserves. It has raised my esteem and admiration towards Microsoft ten fold, and I feel it would be wise to share it, publicize it, and then of course, find (positive) ways to exploit it to turn it into a powerful backend for various purposes."

Lol, my comment on VPC was actually sarcasm, I actually agree with you pretty much accross the board. Look at the posts earlier in the thread. The origional poster was saying backwards compatibility wasnt that important, I said it was, he said that virtualization offset that, and thats where my last comment came from.
