Squirrels can be presented in both a professional and cute manner, they've lightning-fast reflexes. are intelligent and are generally well-liked by everyone.
Now, if ROS becomes very fast, very versatile (and intelligent?), it'll become well-liked by everyone and thus deserve a squirrel as mascot

I strongly believe that Windows users are becoming more and more dissatisfied with the unprofessional appearance of Windows XP. Therefore I think ReactOS can pull users away from Windows by remaining professional in appearance and presentation. This includes how it markets itself with logos and mascots.
Besides, Reacty could kick Rovers behind any day.
not me i love the look of windows xp, but i'm sure you know that.
All it takes is some pixie dust and the right incantations, and you can raise anything from the dead...
Maybe that is what we need as a mascot, a wizard. That is what producing ReactOS is about, incantations. Just put the right words and symbols on the sacred scrolls stored in the sacred hard drives, and magic happens. So put the "atom" symbol in a wizard's hands as a representation of that magic.

Wow, where did the time go? So much has changed.
The blue-red clownish theme and telletubbies-ish background of Windows XP pale in comparison to the modern atrocity that is Windows 8. At least in XP with a few user-configurable settings you could go back to the good old professional 9X appearance.
