Questions on Win 10
AutoPilot refers to a collection of modern deployment solutions. Under this umbrella, there is a deployment solution for setting up school PCs.
For any AutoPilot solution to work, internet connection is mandatory. AutoPilot configs from the cloud can't take effect without connectivity.
Big OEMs such as Lenovo, HP, Dell, etc are part of the first wave of supporters and the earliest of these will start supporting in eary fall, is what we are working towards. We hope that in/by 2018, all OEMs will support AutoPilot.
for devices that have win 10 RS2 build, you can use a powershell script to then deploy via AutoPilot.
So does this mean that for the future devices, you won't have to run the script? The OEMs will give you this information for Autopilot?
But for now, to get the device information, the script allows you to use autopilot...am i right?

Yes, we are working with OEMs, resellers, and distributors to have this information automatically gathered, and they'll be able to upload it on your behalf or provide it to you so that you can upload it. Both mechanisms simplify the steps to get a device ready for Windows AutoPilot.
