Yeah, that's what I mean. It's just a "by-extension" thing. They both relate to being ARM oriented (one being a way to build stuff for the ARM based RT products and the other being the actual ARM based product).

But they don't actually both relate to being ARM products at all. WinRT the runtime is for both ARM and X86

I didn't say they both referred to products. I said they both relate to being ARM oriented, where for Surface RT it's for a product while for WinRT it's for developing for an RT based product (ie. the Surface RT).

I'm not even sure why we're arguing. I was just answering his Q on what the RT stood for and I gave him a bit extra for the reasoning behind it.


probably just arguing symantics but my point was they are definitely NOT both ARM oriented. Windows RT (i.e surface is), WinRT is NOT.
