For something that's going to net us only an estimated 2,5 millions and goes end-of-life by the end 2017 the choice for going with ReactOS until 2017 4Q was easily made. We've calculated what it would cost us to switch to the new equipment begin 2015, and estimated an amount of over € 3.000.000 ,- including hardware, software and man-hours. We also have to redo all our reference measurements to calibrate the new equipment in order to align the measurements with those gathered from the old gear (several hundreds, 2-3 hours per measurement)
If we would be switching to said new system we've got to put adjustment filters between the probes and the measurement card (which needs to be custom made). There is a similar system of another manufacturer but that one costs €100.000,- (measurement card + software), and doesn't exactly have the same range of measurement as our current gear. We've got 2 ReactOS machines running a data acquisition system with a PCI card for which only Windows NT5.x drivers exist. If the link turns out dead at one point just trim everything after the question mark and scroll down to the reply in question (if you can read Dutch that is).
