Meh. Although Linux gives you the freedom to skin your desktop, why skin your way there when you can try out the real thing on a Raspberry Pi [0] with real x86 Windows apps running on it rather than just only x86 DOS games.

Your provided link doesn’t mention the ability to run x86 windows apps on arm windows. Is this actually a thing?

From the link:

> Unlike IoT, Windows 10 ARM is ARM-targeted spin of the OS, which comes with a traditional desktop and Win32 apps support via emulation.
