I have what is possibly the oldest consumer router that's still being actively manufactured

The purpose of ReactOS is compatibility with software that currently exist for Windows.
Hendrik
here we go again....
Rolando. E.R.
And just that. An alternative way to run Windows apps.
Hendrik
you two must be fun at parties
Rolando. E.R.
And you must be boring as shit.

Not just that, but read the project manifesto, the development team finds the Windows NT model to be praise-worthy, and that's why they're also reimplementing all of it's nuances

There's no free equivalent of Mac OS X, yet you don't see folks rushing out to clone it, which wouldn't be too hard, the underlying Apple Darwin operating system is fully open source
Hendrik
Kirn
Probably because there's no Apple specific software that's necessary to use outside Mac's?
There's no Microsoft specific software that's necessary to use outside of Windows.
Hendrik
i remember the times we had this porn bot in here...
Rolando. E.R.
Most industry standard software runs under Windows, some of them have Mac ports, but others don't. So there's no need to clone Mac in any way.
Hendrik
good tines
Kirn
@Isotop that's @rgonewild

also, this is my router: http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2016/07/the-wrt54gl-a-54mbps-router-from-2005-still-makes-millions-for-linksys/
Rolando. E.R.
That's the point of making a free alternative. Use your Windows apps outside Windows.

I'm signing up for my own cable Internet line today
Hendrik

Kirn

Kirn

Kirn
gotta be careful of cost
Hendrik
wow...and 1000/50 will get them your kidneys?
Kirn

Hendrik

Kirn

Kirn

Kirn

Hendrik

How do you install anything in it? Every .exe I've tried fails and the OS says is not a valid win32 application. 😐
Rolando. E.R.

I don't compile anything.
Rolando. E.R.
Regular apps.
🦥Alex Fails
ok. You should check the "OS Version" field in PE extended header

(Google PETools)

Mmm...I have software from 2002 onwards. All failed. I guess the oldest ones would run on Win2000 and WindowsNT
Rolando. E.R.
How do I get around that anywyas? HL2 is not that old.
🦥Alex Fails
First we need to understand the true error's nature
🦥Alex Fails
This message can be seen if there are some loader errors. The most common cases are the invalid architecture (i.e., amd64 on x86), incompatible loader (linker) or OS version (you can check it in PE-header of exe) or incorrect header
