IoT: Windows 10 + Raspberry Pi 2

Microsoft confirms Rasperry Pi 2 will get Windows 10 for free | Windows 10 content from SuperSite for Windows


Windows 10 Coming to Raspberry Pi 2
"Windows 10 will support Raspberry Pi 2, which will be free for the Maker community through the Windows Developer Program for IoT later this year."

Raspberry Pi 2 on sale now at $35 | Raspberry Pi
"the same price as the existing Model B+, featuring:

• A 900MHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A7 CPU (~6x performance)
• 1GB LPDDR2 SDRAM (2x memory)
• Complete compatibility with Raspberry Pi 1

Because it has an ARMv7 processor, it can run the full range of ARM GNU/Linux distributions, including Snappy Ubuntu Core, as well as Microsoft Windows 10."
6x speed improvement in tow years is way ahead of Moore's law... and another challenge for Intel.
It would be nice to have it as a "Micro-PC" in a box", ready to use.
