Line 14 ⟶ 15:
Windows NT does ''not'' include [[wp:Windows 9x|Windows 9x/Me]] or [[wp:Windows 3.x|Windows 3.x]] or older, none of which were actual [[:Category:Operating Systems|operating systems]], but rather [[GUI|graphical shells]] that ran on top of [[DOS]]. (Windows NT was developed from the original [[OS/2]] codebase after Microsoft and IBM parted ways.)
 
'''[[wp:ReactOS|ReactOS]]''' is an open-source implementation of Windows NT, specifically aimed at binary compatibility with [[wp:Windows Server 2003|Windows Server 2003]] (NT 5.2). It is not a Microsoft product, and isn't included in any official list of Windows versions. It also isn't ready for public use, having been in alpha status for several years.
