You realize you don't need windows IOT to do this. Many folks are doing this kind of thing easily using raspbian, or any number of other setups. I tried the windows 10 IOT on the pi, and found it worked well enough, but wasn't very accessible, so went back to raspbian and pispeak. In fact, until I got this 2007 macbook, I was using the pi as my main computer for well over a year simply by running raspbian and pispeak. It worked very well, still gave me access to all pi functions (for when I wanted to experiment) and still let me use the pi as a full-blown computer.
