Tested with virtualbox... runs crappy on my hardware.
Much more usable when booted natively.
I still haven't found a good way to use WhatsApp on my linux
I don't see the point to use a mobile oriented OS under a desktop machine.
How about because of the following two mutually exclusive reasons;
1) Its no longer specifically mobile-oriented. What it is, is TOUCH oriented, and TOUCH is not a feature exclusive to mobile hardware.
... not that Android doesn't work excellently with a mouse and keyboard.
2) There is lots of mobile x86 hardware, such as almost 100% of every laptop ever made.
Android is also an excellent platform for HTPC's (which are anything BUT mobile), including custom x86 HTPC's. Throw a wii-mote and an RF keyboard on a TV-box and you get a pretty good experience.
No it doesn't.
Intel's android stuff is *ENTIRELY* separate, and in fact, totally INCOMPATIBLE with generic x86 hardware.
Correct that android-x86 does not have the backing of Intel. Incorrect that Intel's android is incompatible with generic x86 hardware. Please refer to https://01.org/android-ia/. Our latest release has Kitkat support on standard Haswell and Baytrail hardware.
