add to other question
I asked a question about the chrome cast working with other streaming sites but I forgot to mention that I have a Microsoft surface RT tablet and some apps like the chrome browser won't download on it. It is one thing I am disappointed with this tablet for..... pretty much the only thing really, there are other things it won't allow me to download but that is the only one o can think of that pertains to this. Would it still be ideal for me to purchase the chrome cast?
I'm pretty sure that you need Chrome installed, which unfortunately means Windows x86, not RT. I don't have an RT device to confirm. Microsoft announced their own dongle, the "Microsoft Wireless Display Adapter," which Best Buy has on pre-order, but sadly that requires a second-gen Surface 2; the original Surface RT doesn't seem to have compatible hardware.
