Another alternative is Reactos.

In fact I am surprised that more commercial money has not been put into developing this as an alternative to xp.

The amount of waste that has been generated in just my own work place is scary .. with disposal of quite functional hardware purely because it wont run xp successors ..

Most of it will run linux distros quite happily with most of the appearant functionality of windows 7 or 8
