I haven't done very much testing.  My main interest is the possibility 
of using it for some embedded stuff.  I don't really care if it runs all 
Windows apps correctly.  It will probably be a *long* time before that 
(if ever) happens.

But if it reliably runs a console app (or a fpGUI, Delphi, or Lazarus 
Win32 app) that would be some good first steps.  After that it probably 
depends on what I/O devices would be needed and how well they are supported.

On the ReactOS forums there have been a few discussions (long ago) of 
being able to strip away the GUI.  I think that would be a great option 
but it seems the developers are trying to duplicate NT and they have 
little interest in such an option.
