No. We are not making an XBOX OS. We are porting ReactOS to XBOX. The 
XBOX Kernel is not (and never meant to be) a port of Windows 2000 for 
XBOX. It's a specially crafted kernel with the limitations you 
mentionned for the purpose of gaming. ReactOS is only being ported so 
that it can run on the platform, not so that it can be used only for 
running XBOX games.
