I would like to see win64 be implimented too and windows XP and Vista
API's to work too... maybe a pipe dream, but I think we might have to
implement Vista DRM to make some people happy... but My suggestion is
that only the "root" or "Head Admin would have the ability to turn it
off or on or control how it works.

Is there going to be a new release candidate of
ReactOS version 0.3.3? I
tested it very shortly and was very impressed with how it looked in
comparison to version 0.3.0. Is there a list of known bugs as feedback
from 0.3.3rc1 testers? Searching through Bugzilla might be a bit too
much :).
Anyway, the issues I experience in VMware 6.00 on WinXP Pro x64 host so
far are:
* diskette drive not visible (and/or working). Ever since 0.2.8 or so?
* shutdown does not close the virtual machine (might be improper
shutdown). Screen goes all black and need to enter VMware menu to
shutdown the ReactOS virtual machine.
Is the AUTORUN.INF by now the only file on the root of the CD? icons and
readme files can go in subdirectories I guess, which makes adding
ReactOS to multi-installation CDs a lot easier (a CD/DVD containing
setup or LiveCD of various operating systems, mostly using the Isolinux
bootloader for a frontend menu and chainloading bootsectors).
I've not extensively tested the RC1 on for example if it still can
complete installation and bootup with 32MB or less RAM installed (VMware
allows anywhere from 4MB to 8GB in increments of 4MB, Bochs/Qemu allow
1MB increases).
A resolved item I noticed in this new release was the ability to enter
digits for the computername, wasnt possible previously in 0.3.0 or 0.3.1.
ReactOS is getting interesting by now..a Win32 operating system with a
size of about 50MB and capable of playing huge games sooner or later.
Looks like a blessing to my limited size (16GB) DRAM based solid state disk.
