Suggestions

KEEP THE LIST SHORT

A few suggestions:

better video driver support

Make it this good, that you simply can run the installer from (for example) nvidia.com, and implement hardware acceleration for a few basic things (the cursor, moving windows, things like that).

If this isn't enough for a project, we could expand the assignment with the following: full OpenGL support, hardware accelerate every 2D thing also accelerated in Windows XP and/or ensure that driver installers from other types of hardware also work.

NTFS support

Linux has already an NTFS driver which enables safe reading and editing of files. Other things like creating files isn't safe yet. However, especially NTFS read support would be very handy, so at least the users would be allowed to view their files or copy them to their ReactOS partition. For this, the linux driver has to be ported. If this would be the case, it would be very handy if it would be made easy to make a new port at a later time, when more functionality can be done safely.
