"For the last six months [ RPi team has ] been working closely with Microsoft to bring the forthcoming Windows 10 to Raspberry Pi 2. Microsoft will have much more to share over the coming months. The Raspberry Pi 2-compatible version of Windows 10 will be available free of charge to makers.

I wonder if Microsoft have helped in making the PI capable of running Windows 10, for the same price.

No, it's just Broadcom and the Raspberry Pi engineering team that made the product happen. At the point we knew Pi 2 would be happening, the conversation with MS started and they started work porting Windows to it - with a little help from our engineers.

It's actually ARMv7 not ARM7; but anyway ARMv7 means it will be able to run stock ARM Ubuntu.

Thanks for the catch.

And windows 10 will be on its list, imagine that.
