@dkryder: Is that mainly due to people expecting other linux stuff to work on it, and being stymied by the fact that stuff is missing due to it being squished into a 9MB install? I'd like to see Microsoft do that with Windows... oh wait a minute... that was Windows 3.1!! :-P Thankfully it is possible to netboot, or have rootfs on a USB/microSD, and start getting around those (minor) inconveniences.
I have couple, and will be using one of the Omega2+s to run OctoPrint for a 3D printer... can't beat it for size! I was thinking of adding the microSD sockets to the two Omega2s I have, but it looks like there are other parts (SMD resistors and a few other bits under the tin can 
), so it will have to be netboot or USB rootfs for them.And here's the kicker... I have Windows 10, Visual Studio (pre 2017 aka whatever-the-version-is) and have not had the slightest inclination to even look at Windows 10 IoT on the pine64... so you can perhaps gather from that and earlier comments that the enthusiasm for doing anything Windows IoT related is very low! I'm sure when you try it it is very cool... but I haven't, and am quite happy with my linux and Arduino stuff!
