That's not correct.  The .NET Framework will NOT be ported on Windows
ARM, so .NET applications will not run.  Only Metro applications (using
WinRT) will work on Windows ARM.  You will not be using Python on
Windows ARM, nor will you be able to distribute Python applications.

Windows RT (which is what they're calling the version of Windows 8 that
runs on ARM) is to Windows 8 what Android is to Linux.  It's a very
restricted, tightly controlled environment.  It's Windows for Phones,
not just another port of Windows desktop.
