Daniel.. Found a comment on Facebook the Surface team post about the Duo. What do you make of this?

It's especially interesting that the Surface team would comment about sharing more information in the coming months to a post about the Duo running WOA, or W10X... Check out the screen shot attached.

This is literally the first time MS has spoke out about sharing any Duo details since the October 2nd event.

So, this mean that we can keep a hope of getting Surface Duo running Windows?

I personally wouldn't get my hopes up. There's really no point to having Windows 10X on a small screen and with ZERO apps.

Yes, I understand why people want it, pocket PC, but this is not something the populace at large want.

That statement is very vague as well. They could be indicating a possible Continuum like experience or possibly something else but it won't be Duo with Window 10X on it.

Here's an article with lots of comments on it about this - https://www.windowscentral.com/why-surface-neo-and-surface-duo-run-different-operating-systems

I'm pretty sure Zac and Daniel has good connections within MS to justify this article.

I think that those 'additional details' will just be MS saying it won't happen.

, does not have to be a choice, just give it a dual boot option. I had a Chuwi tablet once with dual boot Android and Windows, worked fine.

, lol, would be good trolling.

I don't know what it is, but I suspect ....something?

I don't think it's a dual boot. It might be a cloud service, like using xcloud to run apps? It might be a UWP software environment. It might just be a software bridge. It might be an option to buy the device unlocked for installing windows just for devs and tinkerers. But I think there's something here that's being kept hush.

Windows continuum please!

Maybe it's Continuum version 2

, an UWP software environment would definitely be interesting but I guess it would clash a bit with Xamarin. I think you're on to something though, some kind of bridge or using their cloud services makes sense.
