So what I'm asking for is how the devs and
especially our PC Steven
Edwards think about asking some companys like IBM, Intel, AMD, nVIDIA,
ATI, Dell,... to support our project.
The issue is finding the correct people in said company. Even then
they all have deals and depend on Microsoft so direct help is out of
the question at this point. Hardware and software donations as well as
small grants are possible but I would not look for any help from any
major player until smaller business has been able to make some money
around ReactOS. Once a small company is able to make a few bucks off
of it then the big boys will want to jump in on the action and turn it
in to a Holy War agenst Microsoft as well. Also lets try to please
take discussions like this to ros-general.
