    All of them modern Windows for ARM devices released since Windows 10 have been boot unlocked to my knowledge, just with very poor driver support. Lookup Linaros articles on the subject.

      Totally out of the loop for sure, definitely basing my assumptions on my experience with the rc2, I’m actually really happy that’s changed

        Then why didn’t you say you’re out of the loop when writing the comments? You’ve just potentially misled a bunch of people for no good reason. These products are controversial enough as is without falsehoods being layered on top.

          I meant it to be implied with my comment tying back to the original surface rc devices, I’ve always really liked the look of the surface line, it’s why I bought one and used it heavily (I was also and windows phone and zune early adopter, other things that were actually really nice but got dropped), I personally disliked that I couldn’t really do much with it after they dropped support as afaik the rc2 no one has cracked and made that crack public.

          And totally willing to admit being wrong, going back and editing my comments to reflect my mistake

              Linux for sure, they weren’t the beefiest devices even for the time, wow someone finally got the rt2 unlocked fully? Appreciate the link, going to have to dig mine out.

                I don’t think it will necessarily be an easy process, and their are some limitations. Still it’s good to see.
