Ah, hopefully one day the ReactOS project will be sufficient and not require these dodgy VMs.

In particular, I'd love to install ReactOS and build LibreOffice, er, natively.




These are just intended for testing. A ReactOS installation wouldn't be useful for testing an app or web page against Windows.


why are they dodgy?


If these VMs use the same license as the ISOs, then they're under a 90-day evaluation license which disallows commercial usage. Maybe this is what he's referring to?


Pretty much nailed it in one :-)
