Why waste your time with DOS? There is already FreeDOS freely available.
Short answer: Because WinNT, Win2k and WinXP support DOS, two.
Microsoft Windows support a lot of things that ReactOS will never support.
Longer answer: Because there existing still a lot of programs created for DOS, Win16 and so on. And it would be nice, to can all this older programs run.
Is it really worth the thousands of hours of work and added complexity of ReactOS?
