![]() These are programs I use every day on top of Windows 7. Yahoo widgets (abandoned but how better/how else to get javascript on the desktop - used daily) VB6 (abandoned but still massive yet runtime still supported) Photoshop CS ver 8.0 (Updated but the first version is till the best -used daily) I spend most of my life working with abandoned software: Remember, just because it stops being supported doesn't mean it stops working. In any case ReactOS may eventually morph into an NT6 system when it eventually becomes usable as an NT5 system. It is only malware/security that we need to worry about. If you had to use today's word processor in five year's time, would that be so very bad? I could run and use Microsoft Word '97 and not feel the need for a new word processor even today. Someone will pick up support for an office suite if ReactOS takes off as a generally used o/s. Good thing about open source projects is that by the time ReactOS is usable there will be a store of o.s. This app is in active development, feedback and bug reports are very welcome. Given that ReactOS may not be available in usable form for years this tiny project (in their eyes) would not interfere with their thinking. Collabora Office is a text editor, spreadsheet and presentation program based on LibreOffice, the worlds most popular Open Source office suite - and now its on Android, enhancing your possibilities to work on mobile and for collaboration.
