The link I gave was just my lazy attempt at citing something. Wikipedia is hardly reliable source No. 1. In reality, it is my understanding the Windows RT (the OS), can only run applications designed for Metro/WinRT (the runtime). That is, any Metro application out there should be compatible with both Windows 8 and Windows RT (the OS). (There may well be gotchas around reusing some native libraries, but I suspect these would be few and far between). So to your earlier 'bet' you went against... > ...Windows RT will have more apps at launch than Android tablet currently exist. Well Windows RT (the OS) should have the same number of (Metro-style) apps as Windows 8, given my understanding from above. I'd expect this to be a pretty high number once the devices hit, given that Developer Preview (and therefore the tools to make these apps) have been out for nearly a year now. Counting the number of Android tablet apps is more difficult. I wouldn't count the full total of Android apps, only ones optimised for a larger screen. First you have to define it. On Google Play's store, I could only find one list of apps for Tablets, which only has around 250 apps: https://play.google.com/store/apps/collection/tablet_featured?start=240&num=24 https://play.google.com/store/apps/collection/tablet_feature... (Given that I was able to get to the 11th page). If betting the number of Windows RT apps against 250, I know which I'd put my money on. Of course, there may well be more than 250. How on earth does one find them though?
