    I’ve actually thought for a while now that a big software company should come out and say they support ReactOS for whatever their product is and advertise it like “Full, Oracle 23c DB support on ReactOS - but without the Microsoft tax.”

    Yes, that’s not realistic between Oracle and MS, but it would be such a boon to ReactOS.

      I can’t tell if you’re pitching this as an MSSQL alternative or if someone forced you to work with Oracle on Windows. Either way, you poor, poor soul.

      For companies that have a legacy product depending on the old OS, but unpatched vulnerabilities because said OS is EoL, maybe this may one day be an appealing option.
