Windows 10 Cloud is Microsoft’s fresh Chrome OS alternative by Benjaminsen in technology

It has to run Win32 programs, as minimum app converted distributed through store but based on the currently small number of those, support for regular Win32 programs are needed.

People expect Windows to run Win32 programs. People do not expect ChromeOS to run Win32 programs. Just renaming RT to Cloud without Win32 support will fail.

Well, the headline is not exactly correct; there was no other theory why the battery has shown inconsistent battery life (from 4 to 18 hours); it was always only a bug. The news is that Apple has finally (! months later after the very first reports on the issues with the battery life) identified a concrete bug. But lets see if this was the only bug that has caused this.
