#2It may be a south-of-the-equator mentality, but it's not going to be summer in all of the 190 countries when Windows 10 is launched. differing calendars aside could USA-centric press releases just mention the month rather than the season?

They haven't announced a month, and there may be good reasons for that. They may have a target goal in mind, but still want wiggle-room if unexpected issues come up, and 'summer' sounds a heck of a lot better than 'At some point in the months of x and y'

Don't get your hopes up, by all accounts 'Windows 10' on the Pi 2 is a special version just for running GUI-less embedded applications. Look at what they have already for the Galileo/Edison (C++ only apps, no GUI) and extrapolate a little bit from there.

The terrible media circus that said Windows 8/10 would run on a Raspberry Pi forgot to mention that it would be the embedded editions of Windows, specifically designed to run IoT-type apps. Not the desktop version.
