Good luck making that work with Windows. If it does its not going to be profitable as Microsoft will eat your arm.

I would love to see one of these running Linux but I don't see that happening realistically

Windows already works on ARM, but some X86 programs are still a little slow. The Snapdragons previously used weren't as fast as the Apple silicon too, so that didn't help. The original Surface X did have a lot more problems, but Surface 9 on ARM from all reports works well.
