I follow ReactOS and other alternative operating systems like Haiku and AROS to see if they made enough progress to use them to replace Windows.
I'd like to see them at a level where the average person can use a DVD or USB stick and install it on their main PC and get apps for it to do what they want.
They haven't gotten that far yet.
I donated to the ReactOS Indiegogo and Kickstarter campaigns, but they never raised enough money for the Community edition. One feature I did want to see was NTFS support so a LiveCD of ReactOS can run an Antivirus scanner to clean an Infected PC that uses NTFS.
