Well, that note in one of my descriptions aged badly, because here's a video on Windows 8 build 7792 - the earliest available ARM32 (ARMv7) build, from August 2010.

It has several oddities - weird stability (good luck using Calculator), missing features and a shortcut that doesn't work. It's similar to other early 779x builds in terms of the features that it does have - some changes to Windows Explorer are present and the build comes with the new PDF Reader, and also includes the Webcam Capture application unlike 7791.

Sadly, the lack of .NET Framework 4.0 makes it difficult to unlock some features since Redlock won't work.

Build string: 6.1.7792.0 (winmain.100802-1750)
