1) The Kano PC runs on a 64-bit processor. 2) We cannot provide specific temperature numbers, but the Kano PC has built-in heat sinks to prevent any overheating. 3) The Kano PC can definitely run Windows 10 Pro, but you will need a Windows 10 Pro key to activate your own copy.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The Kano PC that I purchased in early September of 2021 (Labor Day sale) came with Windows 10 Home S, 64 bit. I immediately removed the S feature (Microsoft has discontinued support for that), ending up with a standard Windows 10 Home computer. So yes, presumably you can upgrade the Kano PC to Windows 10 Professional if you pay Microsoft to do so, or if you have a Windows 7 Professional or above product key lying around somewhere (I understand that upgrade procedure still works). The Kano PC that I have (I'm building it for my grandson) gets warm but not uncomfortably so, and seems to be well ventilated in the configuration that I'm currently using it in. However, I've not used it at all in the tablet mode, so take my observation about this with a grain of salt.
