I think Haiku looks pretty cool, but this is kind of like comparing a car with all kinds of features to something with 3 out of 4 wheels, a cobbled in dining room chair, and no doors. The engine is also cool, but the transmission only has 2 gears.

Haiku doesn't have nearly the feature parity to replace Windows, and it took Linux the better part of 30 years to get there.
