ReactOS
Runs Firefox
It's a wild idea. Windows w/o Microsoft. At one point, I thought this would be the solution. I have come to beleive that this and Wine are actually not such a good idea. What tools like this do is let aplication developers who produce windows only apps, continue to do this even longer. What is needed is market forces to encorage companys to move away from Microsoft's Monoapoly.
Provideing a not quite 100% compatable way for people who don't want to run windows, to run windows only programs, provides no incentive to the makers of windows only programs to provide Linux versions. ( closed or open source )
