That's fine and all, but what apps are there for it? Is Office running on ARM? Any third-party apps? If not, having Windows there is not very relevant to anything.

I think this is what the OP was saying. Linux on ARM has nearly the same set of apps that Linux on x86 has, except for the commercial stuff which is only a small part of the set that most people use. It is the opposite in Windows land.
