Cyanogen Mod for Surface - General Questions and Answers

XDA wouldn't let me post this anywhere else. Don't rage.
Is it possible for someone to develop a port of CM7 to run on the microsoft surface, with dualboot or an application of some kind? I recently bought a surface, and am getting annoyed by the lack of good apps.
Would it be possible for any of you to write a version that could be run? I am physically incapable of writing code, so I could use some help.

[Q] Making a windows mobile port for a tablet pc?

Hi fellow members of XDA!
This is a question I putting to the community (hope to receive more answers than my previous question.
I've been browsing around the web for the last few day in search of way to make my own tablet pc. I think I found some interesting things to get me going and I do have an old laptop that I think I could easily use for my adventure. And so, now that the Hardware part is (in theory) solved I've reach another problem. The OS part. I know android is open source, that most likely I would easily put linux running on the machine, but somehow I want to make it windows mobile capable. Call it a whim if you want.
After reading some stuff around this forum about rom cooking (and I'm no programmer) I have more questions than answers.
So my big question is: If a XDA Rom Cook had access to the device specs, could it build a windows mobile rom for that same device? What specs would he/her need?
Another idea of mine is: I have an old blue angel and a prophet stopped at home. Could I salvage parts from them to the tablet pc?
And here is another question: Where can I get the touch screens, casings and other tablet pc components? Does anyone here knows?
Thanks for reading. I'll start on this project soon and let you know how it goes.
Cheers

i didnt see a newby thread

hi, my name is dale. i have been a huge windows fan my whole life and just bought a new htc hd7. from my experience its similar to the iphone but doesnt compete with the new droid twin core phone. anyways, i fiddle with xna programming quite a bit, i can read it but not write it. on the xna platform there is also an option to compile to zunes format. i know those projects can be syncd onto my phone but what about actual app development? would anyone mind pointing me in the right direction? what software do i need to start learning? anyways, i would like to be a active member of this site, if anyone would like help with anything im sure i can hold down 2d and 3d tiles at the least.
looking forward to meeting all of you, your fav nublet ...

You didnĀ“t see enough...
Welcome to forums,
Have a look on the off topic section

[Q] Complete Newbie to Forums.... wondering how many things the RT can run?

I used to develop VB apps in VB.6 and made a couple custom apps that I'd love to get running on my brand new, nearly virgin Surface RT.
I am really liking the Surface RT, and can't understand what some people have against it.
That being said, I'd love to try programming on VB for my new toy. Is anyone able to guide me through how to set this up? I got Visual Studio 2012, I've jailbroken and updated my tablet. I'm excited to begin but I am such a newbie to this "new generation" programming that I am unsure how to start and what I can get working.
Will my old VB app just run on RT? what do I need to do to convert it?

[Q] I need advice, please read, imporant! iMac related

Hi guys and gals I'm new to the forum.
I've recently decided I wanted to get into app development, I am still yet to learn Objective C and Java but I want to be making apps for both iOS as well as Android.
I am thinking of getting an iMac 27-inch: 3.4GHz is it completely worth it or are there other alternatives out there with a cheaper or similar price tag? Please I would like informative responses so do not post unless its helpful as it will save my time and yours
I'm assuming this might not be a straight forward answer but the reason I want to get an iMac is due to the wider screen size and clearer display and for using XCODE (eventually) but I want to develop for Android also.
Would you also recommend any programmes or software to use for someone starting out with programming and development? Ideally for starting out and then the more complicated programmes for experienced people.
Thank you.
Bump, could someone please answer me.

[Q] New hardware recommendations please?

Hello All,
So in the end it appears that I should get a new laptop. Will stick with Windows environment and Android Studio. But thought maybe I would ask here if anyone had a decent idea of what a good "non-budget" busting laptop would be? RAM wise, processsors, etc.
In the end I'll need an Android tablet that uses voice, but that part can wait while I learn the basics of Android programming. So if anyone has any thoughts they would like to through out, please feel free.
Thanks ahead, as always.
Sergio
