      I remember the claims with Windows XP were it would NEVER blue screen... Because the default setting was it would just restart the computer. If you turned that off you'd still get blue screens once in a while (especially before SP1). They could have just changed the colour to red and their argument would have remained valid.

      Yeah, but you're misrepresenting the project.
      Windows Server 2003 is a windows NT derivative. (as are all modern versions of windows from XP onwards)
      I used to dual-Boot windows 95 and windows NT4.0
      You know how often windows 95 would crash (same hardware keep in mind)?
      Minimum once a day. Often more than that.
      You know how often I crashed NT4.0 on that same hardware?
      Never.
      Not a single time.
      At all.
      Just because it says 'windows' you have to remember that this is not the same operating system.
      The NT OS and the 9x OS are basically completely unrelated systems (part of why games didn't work so well on NT until XP tried to merge everything together)
      They have overlapping SDK libraries, but even these are implemented differently internally. (They expose the same library calls with the same interface, which is why the same programs can usually run on both)
      NT - > Extremely stable
      9x - > Crashtastic.
      So, in any event, if this is supposed to be windows Server 2003 then it's essentially the business counterpart to windows XP (aka NT5.1)
      It's not nessesarily as solid as NT4.0 was, but it should be pretty stable.
      Having a clone of it crash constantly suggests they have a LOT of work to do...

    • @Aeroxima
      @Aeroxima 4 года назад +5

      ​@@KuraIthys Good points, just have to chime in again, I must have been the only person that had a household of working Win95/98 computers.
      Seriously did not crash that often, certainly not daily. With old hardware or VMs, somebody could just go run these things and see how often they crash, I honestly think people are exaggerating.
      (Of course it will depend on your setup, and older parts may not be what they used to be while VMs are never 100% perfect themselves.)

    I followed react from the start, if my memory serves right they suffered badly with a forced code audit which caused the project to stall heavily, and unfortunately I think they find it hard to get the support, time, money and developers. The vision is there, and I for one find it impressive that they have gotten this far. Once this thing gets into beta and can be used as a daily then things will pick up. I applaud them and have massive respect to do what no one else has done. Can you imagine small businesses using this instead of windows and saving a truck load on licences?

      @gmitchellfamily 2 года назад +27

      Late to the game here, but small businesses will never rely on something that has no support resources. This isn't just help-desk, it's also applications, drivers, server and deployment technologies... hell, good luck getting Zoom or Teams to run on this.
      Forming business partnerships these days also relies heavily on being able to adequately demonstrate that you follow industry best-practices when it comes to information security. These are extremely tough bars to pass in many cases unless you are actually following standards, the vetting process can and will kill your deals.
      Using an obscure OS that isn't even Linux is just asking for trouble, I'm sorry to say. I've worked at a Linux shop and anytime customer-facing staff were using Linux, there was a price paid in terms of compatibility and efficiency. This makes you non-competitive.

      They are not comparable. ReactOS is useless for any practical application. I started using Linux 24 years ago and - unlike ReactOS - it was stable and usable albeit more as a server OS because the desktop part wasn't exactly friendly (manual configuration of XFree86, having to enter your RAMDAC and so on) nor capable (no video codecs, limited intra-desktop integration, sketchy hardware support).

      @jochannan7379 Год назад

      @@ytrav Debian GNU/Linux has been my daily driver since 2001, and I couldn't be happier. Sure. I am not a gamer, so I really cannot speak to that. Regarding the UI, there are so many different choices available; nobody forces you to choice "a windows/macos ripoff", if it is not to your liking. I wouldn't say that GNU/Linux is a "flawless, smooth experience, beginner friendly and never crashes". I had to do some serious learning to master it. But I could. On Windows, trying to pin down the cause of an error is usually fumbling in the dark, rebooting and hoping it goes magically away, or even spending hours reinstalling the whole system. On GNU/Linux, the output of dmesg or journalctl my often look cryptic, but it allows you to identify, understand and fix the actual error rather than fumbling in the dark. So, GNU/Linux certainly isn't for you if you are unwilling to learn and expect everything to always just work™, but it is definitely for you if you want an open, flexible and rock-solid system. ReactOS unfortunately is almost none of these things. On ReactOS, errors seem just as random as on Windows, and the system goes no five minutes without crashing. That's a very different experience.

      @ArduinoGuru - As someone that first used Linux in 1998/1999, yeah I'm going to have to call BS on that one.
      Linux was extremely hard to use, the GUI that existed back then was basically a joke...
      And stability is an even bigger joke.
      In my experience Linux is only stable if you configure it once then never EVER alter any software on it ever again.
      Linux has always been one of the most brittle, failure prone operating system's I've ever used whenever I've tried it.
      Now, FreeBSD is rock solid.
      But linux? Touch the slightest thing and the whole system would come tumbling down on your head. (this was all the more true in the late 90's.)
      BSD always (and to this day) has the problem of poor hardware support.
      But in terms of stability, linux doesn't even come close.
      And while I would say that even the late 90's linux builds were more stable and reliable than windows 9x...
      The same cannot be said of windows NT vs Linux from that era...
      No thanks. I don't want to touch 90's Linux with a 60 foot pole...
      Modern Linux... Eh.
      But 90's Linux? Nope. Burn it. Burn it with fire...

      ​@@KuraIthys I admit that Windows NT were good OS , my first try with NT family was with Windows 2000 server edition (bit late I know ) , but this is not fair compression at all , Linux got no support from any hardware companies since PC is open standard platform and literally there is thousands of small devices that could run on any modern PC if none of hardware vendors gives Linux developers any hint how their devices runs how you expect volunteers team be able to fireguard how to make stable driver for it ,
      in 90's even early 2000's I never had chance to test Linux maybe I hear he name once or twice on couple computer books , first time I hear about it was on 2008 after , back then I was stupid and expected everything to come to work out the box I had no idea how drivers works , after month I give up
      because I could't make my DVB card to work on it because I lake the basic knowledge how Linux work and how it detect devices , but in general the user experience were amazing for me and first time on my life I felt how strong my system is ,it was something I can't explain but what was on my mind no single Windows OS's ever come close to this system it was like dream come true fro me . BTW I experience with Windows since 3.1 and 95,98,2000,ME,Vista,xp,7,10 since I work as IT I tried windows on multiple device , and deal with a lot of people all of them had problems with windows after first 3 months from installing it , and no single PC I got my hand on were working correctly with all of bloated software and background tasks specially sh!ts manufactures shipped their PC's with . my 16 years experience conclusion is Windows made people life like hell , and if you don't believe me listen to leaked scammers call to average Windows users and how brainwashed these people are .

    I was a little surprised by the tone of this being a knock off, janky etc. I mean yeah I get it. But it's freaking amazing that they have something compatible with Windows at this level, like when you consider it was coded from the ground up. And when you consider how complex Windows actually is.

      windows wouldnt actually be so complex or heavy when the developers actually had more than zero skill. look at linux, look at OS X, look at , they are WAY cleaner, WAY faster and WAY more reliable. windows is just a mess of tangled redundant and buggy code. that it didnt implode is a fucking miracle. but i guess band-aid'ing things until it collapses under it's weight is a thing that brings the most muhneyz

    Anthony, for next time, just so you know. There is the option to actually make it so that the mouse is actually only plugged into the VM(if that makes sense to you) If you select the specific usb thing and set it as only for the VM in some of the virtual box settings. Sorry for my bad explanation, but you'll find it I'm sure.
    Fun story though, I know that cause I was using my pc with a VM for playing 2 games on the same PC on different monitors, cause that was the only way it happened to occur to me for doing it. So I just plugged in 2 mice and 2 keyboards in the system and set one set for the VM(which actually ''unplugs'' them from the main pc in some kind of virtual way? so that only the VM takes input from them)
    Hope this info is helpful for next time.
