Windows Surface pro will have more apps than IOS and android combined on launch day.
Tablet using AMD CPU's will also be able to run Android apps.
Pro will have apps simply because it can run legacy code. How many of those umpteen million apps do you think are going to be optimized for touch based devices? Almost none. So why buy a touch based tablet to run a bunch of Windows software that isn't touch enabled? You might as well buy a laptop.

We'll find out in a few days, but I predict very few RT Apps and even fewer touch-enabled Apps. It's going to look pretty stupid to have Apps running on your tablet that still have File - Open and the usual familiar Windows menus.
