Really poor. I tried about 1 year ago and things like 7zip don't work. I have never executed on a dedicated machine, only using qemu. There was very little applications runing well. I suposse on real hardware will be more problems because problems with device drivers. Reactos also have problem with inno setup, so many aplications using this setup can't be installed, you must to copy using zip files.
I will download the new ReactOS released last month to check Eu sanity test.

The trick to get euphoria running on Reactos (Emulated on winXP) is:
- Download the reactos+qemu pack
- Download VDK program to modify the ReactOS disk image from http://chitchat.at.infoseek.co.jp/vmware/vdk.html.
- Using VDK mount the file ReactOS.vmdk as a virtual disk on your XP system.
- Copy to your virtual disk your Euphoria directory.
- Unmount your virtual disk using VDK STOP
- boot reactos
- Modify the environmental variables, the same as you do on Windows: My Computer > Control Panel > System

ReactOS. An operating system that is light weight, compatible, secure, open, reliable, fast, portable, extensible, object based, built on a rock solid NT core, it is a "reliable and robust operating system for tasks ranging from embedded micro computer to personal computer, workstations to server cluster, mainframes and super computers".
However; it is not recommended for everyday use.
The terms "Rock solid", "reliable" and "robust" must have acquired new definitions during the ReactOS development process.
