But right before I went to buy one I saw an article that Microsoft are changing windows 10 to take the desktop ability away from tablets that size in fact it sounds like they will be stripped down to what RT was.

So yeah they nearly got me then they did something really dumb and took away the only part that appealed to me anyway, so I guess they are resorting to bait and switch tactics now.
Even if that were true (and I've seen no reports to confirm it), why would you need to run Windows 10 on it?
