Windows RT upgrade to Windows 10

Not quite sure what you mean by "integrated the rt's ability for arm cpu's into the full windows 10 " as they are completely different code sets. Nothing that natively runs on ARM will run on x86 just as much as the other way round.

You can make them both capable of running the same applications which is the ethos behind Universal Apps but the operating system itself has to by definition be written for the processor it is intended to run on.

What makes Microsoft's attitude for RT less comprehensible is that there is

an ARM build in existence i.e. the Phone build. Not only that but there is also a build for the Raspberry Pi albeit with limited functionality.

It is difficult to see Microsoft taking on Android given its price point, if a buyer is only willing to pay peanuts they have to put up with simian software. In its 1st iteration RT was an iPad beater and as such a much more viable target, they gave up far

too easily. Not only that but they end up developing for iOS, incomprehensible!

 

With their announcement and trials of the new Windows 10ARM32 version, in principle would it run on the Surface 2 Specs: Surface 2 uses a 1.7 GHz quad-core Nvidia Tegra 4 chipset with 2 GB of RAM - just wondering...?

Anyone got any thoughts?

Apparently the new Windows version has an emulator for running on ARM based processors (link to MS video below) I'm a layman but wondered if anyone thought this version might be made to work on the Surface 2 : https://channel9.msdn.com/Events/Build/2017/P4171

Given the current glitch with the store and accounts server the Microsoft brass should all be terminated.
