Psst. All you need is Windisk w/ 7/XP Ultimate running decompiler on PC to fetch the source code and patched up using GNU. Then:
>Take a decompiled Win7/XP core
>Strip all the COM garbage and IE hooks
>Patch the kernel to boot inside QEMU or real hardware
>Replace HAL, ntoskrnl components, GDI, etc., with GNU/Linux analogues
>Port coreutils, init, bash, maybe even udev to handle hardware
>Bolt on Wine or ReactOS DLLs for Win32 API compatibility
>Slam X.org or Wayland on top and fake explorer.exe with Qt or GTK
>Call it “GNU/NT” or “Gentoondows-ng”
