And?
I think it's an good decission by Microsoft to release Windows for the Pi for free.
We will see, what will be possible with it, an if it can compete with an Linux-based OS.
It won't. Widows 10 for RPi is made for developing IoT, not using system.

Yes, but there are also Linux-based firmwares, which are meant for developing IoT.
And there is the question: Will it be better than an Linux-based OS? Will it just be another OS? Or will it be something completly different?

If Windows 10 would run in my RPi, it will only run under KVM.(the Pi2 has hardware VT)

Apparently, that has just ModernUI, so it's ____(insert your worst word here)
Put down your pitchforks guys , if it's anything like how Windows IoT is for Intel Edison boards( the only other boards except RPI to have windows IoT)
It will just be a commandline interface and its ages behind Linux based embedded systems.

Actually, if it has only command line and Win32 support, it would be several times better than MetroGUI and no command line
Microsoft made a blogpost a week ago: https://blogs.windows.com/bloggingwindows/2015/03/18/developing-for-the-windows-10-device-platform/
Now we can download the preview on Microsoft website.
But you can install it on RPi only with Windows 10.
Wouldn't it be nice if we could get a full running Windows on RPi?
Not like that's gonna happen -.-
Ubuntu full would honestly be better

Not unless someone ports it for Android. Keep in mind, Android is **NOT** Linux. It only uses it's kernal

What it *****x written in, mostly C? The android app framework uses java, it would take a complete rewrite. Can't really be called a port.

Oh nothing to be sorry about, you show that you have a better grasp of the architecture of Android OS than 90% here by distinguishing between an OS and a Kernel.
so its using the linux kernel just not linux? lol

Common misconception. There is no "linux" out side of the Linux kernel. The most basic form of OS that runs ontop of the Linux kernel is all of the GNU software. That you would call GNU/Linux OS if you wanted too.
Of course the major distributions kind of perpetuate the misconception... meh.
I am using connectbot to connect to shell that is running *****X. It works well but drains a bit of battery. Come hang out in #android on irc.efnet.net

You have to have your own shell. You can purchase them for a few $ a month.

Erm, so you're going to emulate Windows mobile to emulate ubuntu. Doesn't sound like it will... work decently.
There isn't a way to get Windows Mobile on android; if you wanted windows mobile, you shouldn't of bought a android phone.

I was replying to someone else. Not sure why you quoted me on that one. I have no intention of ever running WinMo again, it even says so in my sig.
However if someone else wants to emulate WinMo on the hero I see no reason why they shouldn't be allowed to try. A lot of times people do things 'just to see if they'll work'....so lose the attitude.
yeah there isn't really a reason i want to just to see if there is a way and to see how it runs and such
how about throwing windows 98 up on that ***** and breaking out a nice bluetooth mouse and keyboard

From what I know, w7 will stripe data across internal storage and sdcard, so you would need another sdcard for android

First let me say thank you to the xda community. I have enjoyed several android rom on my HD2 and will continue to support and test roms hoping to make a permanent transition one day.
Now on to the meat of the thread. Since there are still several flaws in most builds still why not create a app that shuts down or suspends the session of android os without having a power cycle or hard reboot. This would allow the use to take full advantage of both OS surly making it the ultimate device.
Great. Now YOU go make one then.

Think its a pretty valid question. This would be good but don't think it is possible as Android can't access NAND yet and I'm guessing thats where the windows Kernal is so don't think it's possible. I may be totally wrong tho.

I thought the android os is already running on top of the windows mobile OS making the phone a virtual machine.
No. It shuts down wimno when haret is loaded.
In theory, it's a great idea...but it's not really possible

Nah, when you run Android, Windows Mobile shuts down completely...Windows Mobile is just used to initialise some of the hardware first
linux virtual machine?
Thanks for helping me clear that up.
i was hoping for a meld of the two os like a virtual machine.
All details here.
zomg so epic
btw anyone knows if there is a live stream from the presentation?

Now however ComputerWorld are reporting that Microsoft will not be streaming the event live, and it is unclear if it will be shown afterwards either.

From what I've seen so far a lot of it's just Microsoft taking things that were broken in the Developer Preview and fixing them. But the new features look really good.

I like it so far
Is it locked to metro or are you able to use "classical" UI?
1.7/2.5 GB DL'd so far @ 700 kB/sec
You can use both Metro UI and the classic desktop (that's how it's always going to be on Windows 8 except for Windows on ARM)

No, desktop will be available on ARM as well. Therefore Windows 8 will come out like Windows Phone - choose whatever device, its all the same. So if you're buying a new tablet or computer, choose one, its still Windows 8.

The SDK is finally out today and only to Linux users.
Windows and Mac users have to wait a bit more, seems like.
Anyways, now we can start creating ports for our N9s :victory:

This is great! Both this and Tizen are based off of Linux. I want to get a copy on my Z10, but I wonder how I will do
that without buying another phone?
I want to see how both of them work.
