I am just delighted by the screenshots. I love this Win9x like interface aesthetica for being dense in font size/information, very stringent in optics. Even if this is not exactly the colors and shadows of Win9x, this aspect remains. There were a few Web toolkits in the past which also had this, but since the dawn of mobile UI sickering into the desktop, we somehow lost this art. Even the rather consistent KDE/Gnome UIs don't feel so "home" for me as these (frankly nostalgic) Win9x.

They mentioned their work on upgrading their fork of Wine from being based on Wine 2.x/3.x to Wine 10.0. I didn't realize just how old their wine components were, it doesn't seem like the upgrade fully made this release but I'm excited to see what doors that'll open when it's completed. Getting a Haiku release and a ReactOS release in such a short window is such a treat.
