I can see IBM supporting us, since their last Good OS, OS/2, is now efectively dead. I don't see some companies like Sun, or Novell, supporting us, since they already have a vested interest in an Operating System
What I'd really like to see are Hardware Manufacturers getting behind us. Realtek, nVIDIA, ATi, Intel, AMD, VIA, etc, could all be approached, and ask for collaboration on writing GPL Drivers (Although nVIDIA is notoriously skeptical about open-source)

Maybe we could get a big company as a sponsor? I think, if we wrote to some companys like maybe IBM or so, we might find some good sponsors, who could maybe even provide us some full time coders. And this could really increase development speed. But maybe they just want to help us out with some software or who knows what. We just have to ask and we will get an answer.

OTOH, I think there needs to be better project management and a cooperation mentality, something akin to a real start-up software company. I have this dream where everyone is using Visual Studio Team System and writing patches for bug reports, using peer-review,
managing
meetings, doing nightly test builds, filling out test cases.... but
I'm
sure that would put many people off. (even though it would cut development time by a year at least)

Can you get Microsoft to donate licenses for VSTS to all ReactOS developers? ;-)
