[Microbit-Python] Windows

[David Whale]

I tried the micro:bit TD website on a Raspberry Pi 2 inside the epiphany
browser, it was as slow as treacle and pretty much unusable.

Shipping raspberry pi's to schools doesn't actually solve *every* problem -
it creates a different set of problems that still need to be managed, in my
experience.
