sometimes i think on the point of this OS. I KNOW that is developed by very few people but man...after 25 years they barely catch up with the year 2000 and its still unstable as shit

ReactOS used to have Windows Server 2003 as a role model.
It now can use Windows 200x drivers. Last time I tried, it was limited to NT 4 drivers (SB16 etc).
ReactOS works together with Wine project. It can run applications that are sorta recent.
It's not being limited to Windows 2000/XP applications.
Themes/styles now work. ReactOS can use various skins.

The main sticking points were lack of robust ntfs, and several issues with how caching worked, last I looked at it, but that was several years ago.
