Unfortunately, the majority of the systems in that article are essentially
dead. They made it to a state where they boot on some hardware and run some
applications and then just gave up. They haven't been updated in years, and
as new hardware comes out they become less and less usable, try finding a
computer that boots ReactOS. And they are so obscure that people seems to
forget that they are stagnant because of the excitement of the discovery.
Haiku is really the only OS that keeps going, its one of the most impressive
parts of Haiku, the OS dev world is tough, yet we are still here, still
improving. If we keep it up we could, Haiku could become ... well... exactly
what we all hope it will be. We have that potential.
