Well read my whole reply. The second paragraph is about a version of Windows 10 that won't include the desktop (& therefore I doubt it will run Win32 applications) for devices under 8". They may not call it Windows RT but it will effectively be the same thing. I highly doubt that we will be able to run Win32 apps on phones and small tablets and I think it's even unlikely that we'll run them on the Xbox (although it is an x86 platform). So call that what you will but it's the same concept as Windows RT.
Also Windows RT is just a version of Windows 8, compiled for ARM, and that only allows installation of apps built for the WinRT platform. Rather than bringing the whole Win32 environment to ARM devices they just brought the WinRT platform, hence why I started my reply with some info about that, it isn't going away.
