Jesus Christ you people are the biggest group of angry fanboys on any website I think I've ever seen, except for maybe Engadget.

It's bad.

OK, so the OS runs on x86, but no apps (unless source is compiled for x86) is going to run unless there is an emulator.

It's the same issue with windows 8 running in Arm processors. So what, only specially compiled apps will be run. Does not seem very useful for general uses.

so you are telling us you are one of the few nobody's who have an arm device running windows 8 and you were able to confirm this?

apple, Linux, windows they all came from the exact same place -Unix. so that means that your running everything even if your only running one thing (saywat?) bcause mac os and linux came directly from unix and then windows came from a combination of unix's dos shell apple's early versions of Darwin and some Linux codeframe. therefore you are running everything when you run windows, you run lots when you run mac osx and you are a minimalist on Linux. Linux is fast because t is one of the only modern os architextures with direct connections to the original computer codeframe (the os in the very first omputer when they finally coded the thing)
