Android hacked to run on x86

I've tried it out -- it actually doesn't work half bad. Neat proof of concept.

It's so classic - "doesn't work half bad" without a single hint on how. I won't even argue, just mention that you can't expect same experience as a production device from v0.2 of the effort. Also check the roadmap (TODO list) before dismissing it.

What many people fail to realize is that this 'phone' OS actually can work for something larger than just a phone (let's ignore Chrome OS for now, they will eventually merge).

"Doesn't work half bad" means that it works. It boots, it launches apps, it doesn't crash after 5 minutes. What more do you want?
