If this were true, why use Linux when FreeBSD looks almost identical and can run Linux binaries?
Because GNU/Linux is my first of the two and there's no compelling reason for me to change to FreeBSD (the 1000% factor usually used in marketing).
A free software clone of Windows would be immensely useful. For one thing it brings all the driver & application support Windows gets. It's also open source with all the advantages that brings like ability to modify, enhance & study. It would likely cost no money though that's not so important.
Why isn't wine enough? And why do you think reactos will go further than wine on implementing win32?
