[NTLK] Fwd: Einstein for Windows 10

[Michael W. Arnold]

I started setting up my Windows 10 environment to give this a try last night.  Hopefully I’ll get things completed so I can start compiling tonight.  VS2015 was installing when I went to bed.  First step will be getting jam to compile.  I’ll let you know if I hit the same roadblock.

I’m *very* interested in getting Einstein to work on inexpensive Windows 10 devices.
