Is it really somehow microsoft-related website? It seems like a phising website to me.
Why would they give away free motherboards?


Windowsondevices.com, registered under Microsoft, redirects to the dev.windows.com subdomain.
It's legit.
I don't think everyone who register will automatically receive the Galileo board.
There will be some vetting conducted, and I'm sure geographic distribution will be factored in as well.

Free boards with no string attached, only by sending a email?

Its more likely some kind of pishing site, or a site to collect emails to spam
https://www.windowsondevices.com - it domain, it will move u to this site: https://dev.windows.com/en-us/featured/Windows-Developer-Program-for-IoT
Look at SSL certificate: Microsoft IT SSL sha2
It is not phishing
