My hope is that it will put more effort into projects like ReactOS, which will get us a binary-compatible version of Windows that is free and open-source.

Microsoft in the last few years had a see-the-light moment with Open Source. If the stars align and I'm good this year, Microsoft might release some core Windows and DirectX code to the community.
