Installing windows 8 pro - Microsoft Surface

So i purchased a tablet, that im pleased with and i purchased windows 8 pro.
My question is, IF i bought a Surface with Windows RT, could i
install my Windows 8 Pro?
Is there a bios on the surface, to be able to do this?

No, Surface RT is an ARM processor. Windows 8 Pro is an x86 architecture operating system and will not run on ARM processors. Wait til early next year for the Windows Surface Pro which will be x86 and support what you are asking but with a higher price tag.

[Q] Dual/triple booting Surface Pro?

I'd like to consolidate my tablet and laptop experience. I want my next computer to be a hybrid, and one contender is the Surface Pro. I often develop for different operating systems, so native support for running multiple operating systems is a high priority. How difficult is it to dual boot Ubuntu / Windows 8 on a Surface Pro, compared to dual booting a typical laptop? Does grub still do the job?
Has anyone successfully dual booted Mac OS X on a Surface Pro?

Dual Boot Android and Windows

Before we start this off, I just want to say I understand a lot of Android devices have an ARM processor in them. Mine has an Intel Atom.
I have the Dell Venue 8 tablet with the Intel Atom processor in it. Through doing research, I've found the Dell Venue 8 pro has a slightly better version of the same processor I have. So, it got me wondering if my tablet could run Windows on it as well. I've done a lot of research, but came up dry for Android devices that don't have an ARM processor in it. So, with the assumption that the specs are compatible, my question is this: is it possible to make my tablet, and others like mine, dual boot Android and Windows, if you could break the boot loader into installing it? I know you can dual boot Android and Windows on a PC and the Venue 8 pro, and a few other devices, including smart phones. The second part is would it be legal, with the purchase of a license key, to run it on this device? I don't see why it would be illegal, but ive never used a portable version of Windows, so I'm not sure.
What do you think, is it possible or a foolish man's dream?
