    Feel a bit dumb saying this since it’s apparently been around 30years but I’ve never heard of this.

    Any comments on the user experience? Before you tell me to just install Linux, I have on some of my systems but I have a lot of specialty peripherals and work software that I’ve never been able to get to run properly on Linux distros on my main desktop and the laptop experience still feels like a compromise to me.

    What are some downsides of using this over windows?

      ReactOS is still in very early alpha and can not be comfortably run on bare metal systems except for some from the late 90’s or early 00’s.
