ReactOS boots experimental build on ARM64, targets Windows NT compatibility

The ReactOS project, which aims to create an open-source operating system compatible with Windows NT, has successfully booted an experimental build on ARM64 architecture. This development allows the OS to run on devices like the Raspberry Pi 5. While still in its early stages, the achievement marks a significant step for the project's goal of providing a free alternative to Microsoft's Windows NT lineage. AI
