Make your LAPTOP a big Android Tablet Computer.

That’s interesting,

I've seen Android ONLY in tablets and mobile devices, never on any laptops / desktops. But thats going to change. Couple of ways to have the Android OS running on my laptop/desktop, and it saved myself from purchasing Android Tablet for my kid, and his eyes from gaming on small 7inch tablet.

Three ways we can do, as far as I know.

0. Installing Android OS as separate OS on my Windows Laptop/desktop with dual boot.

Pros : Its very small OS and runs pretty fast with the power of desktop/laptop resources. COOL.

Cons : Changing my laptop to dual boot, I dont like it.

Installation procedure -

1. Installing Android OS on my USB memory stick, and switching the boot to USB first, then HDD.

Pros : Thats interesting, no impact on my HDD and its running COOOOL. It runs as a BIG ANDROID Tablet and its pretty fast.

Cons : Download space is limited and for me the downloaded apps are not retaining in the sessions. We cant access the laptop files. Since it is acting as a layer between Android OS and Native OS, this needs to be matured enough to run all types of Android Applications. Hope BlueStack will make a better release soon.

Other details

You can install new Android applications with the included AndAppStore, though these will only be installed while this Android session is running. If you reboot your computer, you’ll only see the default applications and settings again, cant help.

2. Anybody heard of BLUE STACK - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluestack_Way

But I actually mean - http://bluestacks.com/

This is Android App player application running on Windows / Mac, which acts as a layer between Android Applications and the underlined native OS.

Pros : No USB, No memory storage limitations, can be executed as antoher Windows Application, retains the installed Android Applications. IT SUPPORTS MAC as well, so good for those who develop apps for iPhone as well as Android.

Cons : It doesnt give the exact feel of Android Tablet. It tries to mimic, but still far away from the real feel. But we can access AppStore/GooglePlay and do what ever we would like to do with Android device. I havent tested the camera / voice feature, so no comments on that.

The Bluestacks app player can actually play the Android apps faster than on an Android powered smartphone. I can connect my Android Phone to my BlueStack @ laptop via Cloud Connect App.

FUTURE Developments :

Making Android port natively on to x86 Windows.
