I am so out of the loop, I don’t have any windows computers anymore which means I don’t get to try Windows 11. The last windows I used was Windows 10 years ago just after upgrading from Windows 7 and I didn’t like it.

  • do you have it already?
  • what are your thoughts?
  • did MS do well?
  • is it fast, does it feel lean or bulky

Maybe I should try it out just to get a feeling for it, I think without knowing what most people will use I can’t talk about alternatives with them.

    ReactOS has not copied one line from Windows source code. It is a clean room creation that allows Windows programs to run.

      Yes and no, it is also a product of a good part of reverse engineering that also does not work very well. I think that MS is going to release Windows XP as Open Source before, as it has already done with MSDOS, that ReactOS is going to work as it should. Besides, who today is going to want an imitation of Windows XP, without good compatibility with current applications? Browse with IE?

        It is something, even if it is barely above a hobby project in terms of end product.

          Agree, I think the same, like old MSDOS and other projects it may be interesting for people and devs who like to experiment or some educational purposes. A practical use I do not see in this.
