I think it could be a really interesting model for folks who need to run legacy Windows software in the future, as well. Instead of keeping a few XP machines around (lack of security patches and all) why not just spin up a lightweight ReactOS VM for just that one application?
Think of all the weird desktop apps, custom databases, etc. that small businesses, schools, and other non-technical orgs have baked into their workflow. Yes, eventually we'll have wonderful legacy-free versions of all of these available on the web but in the meantime wouldn't it be nice to give them some outlet to use them w/o paying an MS tax or dealing with the infinite upgrade treadmill?
