It's a technical accomplishment ... sort of like climbing Mount Everest 
or putting a man on the moon (or Mars). You can debate the social and 
economic benefits of such an undertaking but in terms of pure bragging 
rights, I think such an accomplishment would put M$ to shame.

As for applications ... I'm sure there's a few that would port over. If 
you're pointing out the low return on investment, then yes, I think you 
are right. However, it only takes one or two persons that ... for 
whatever reason ... very much want or need ReactOS to run on some 
alternative platform and are willing to put forth the effort.
