>... but perhaps you are confusing WindowsRT (the version of the OS for ARM devices) and WinRT (the new Windows RunTime).

quite possible. The unofficial way is described in
http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/01/first-cracks-appear-in-windows-rts-locked-down-desktop/

From user POV I agrre with
clrokr's stance is that breaking Windows RT's restriction makes it a more useful platform. In the description of the hack, clrokr closes with a request, asking Microsoft to "please consider making code signing optional and thereby increasing the value of your Windows RT devices."
but guess MS will try for "biz" markets and emulate AAPL more then android.
