I've got an Intel Galilleo that Microsoft sent me which I was hoping to use to play with the embedded windows platform, but it was so locked down, all you could do was write arduino sketches, now they release their Windows for IoT and it only works on Raspberry Pi 2? I've got beaglebones and RPis that I'd love to give Windows 10 a play on, but they've shot themselves in the foot by supporting such a small part of the hardware market. I've been a microsoft fan for a long time, I have a Windows 10 laptop, Windows Phone, and want to at least give them a try for IoT (though I have no problem with my linux installs), but I think they've lost me on this one. Who thought they could come into a market which is well served by the linux community, offer very little if anything compared to what is already available, make it difficult to install, have it work on a small subset of hardware, and make it a success. I don't understand Microsoft's strategy here at all!
