"/_Why not port ReactOS to ARM?"_/
As was in the news today, start with an already ARM-enabled operating
system (Linux, I'd suppose) and run ReactOS under it in a VM.

The trick is in getting this as lightweight as possible. Minimal Linux
distro including virtualisation/emulation software + (installed)
ReactOS. Bochs (plus config file, bios and vga-bios) is under 1MB if
using an executable compressor like UPX.
I imagine the various hardware-passthrough options from some
virtualisation programs (QEMU/KVM) allows ReactOS to become more
compatible with a system. Once that's achieved, a native version of
ReactOS would be quite nice :)
