There is a new and upcoming open source OS that is capable of running 
Windows apps natively - it's still early days - but apparently 
development is "full steam ahead"

The name of the OS is "Reactos" - apparently it is already capable of 
running MSoffice, IE7 and Windows versions of Firefox, Abiword  and 
Photoshop version 5 - plus many other smaller Windows apps.

There is an article in "Linux Format" magazine October 2006 edition about 
Reactos and there is a live CD iso for Reactos version 0.3 rc3 on the 
cover DVD. It also gives the option to install to hard drive.

According to the article, it is still somewhat unstable - but at least 
it's available and things hopefully will improve at a good rate.


Regards Arie
