Jeffery Roach, no one is expecting to use Android apps on Windows. We are expecting to uses windows programs from Google on Windows.
How can you use google play apps on the microsft surface RT?
Please let me know if there is a way to use google play apps on a Surface RT. I am trying to use an app that is only in the apple app store or google play store. Thanks

What software are you not allowed to run? Why would you expect to use Android Software on a Windows Machine? If you are eluding to running Win32 programs, again it is up to the developer to port the Application to the ARM Platform.
As an original RT owner and an owner of the Surface 2 and Pro 2 I will say I use my RT machine much more than my x86 machine.

I can't even use google chrome, google drive or EDMODO website on the Microsoft Surface. did anyone was able to make this thing work ?
Google has publically stated that they're not supporting Windows 8/RT and are actively breaking things...they need to secure their near duopoly in the Tablet Space. You've been Scroogled...
For Edmodo, have you tried the mobile site?

Sorry,
