#ANDROID ON WINDOWS: Run Android OS on your PCs and Laptops with BLUESTACKS

This is one great app that I had to get on my laptop when my android handheld device crashed. It has been of great use to and comfort to me. It can do virtually all that you can have done on your regular android OS. I hope it comes in handy to you all too...

BLUESTACKS

 

BlueStacks runs Android OS and apps on Windows PCs with instant switch between Android and Windows - no reboot is required. End consumers can now enjoy their favorite Android apps on Windows PCs. Android apps can appear either as icons on the Windows desktop, or within a full-blown Android environment.

BlueStacks helps PC manufacturers to ride the Android momentum by enabling Android apps on x86-based tablets, netbooks, notebooks, convertibles and AiO Windows PCs. With the new hybrid convertible form factors, BlueStacks completely eliminates the need to carry two devices. The end consumer benefits from getting both Android and Windows at the price of a single PC.

BlueStacks integrates seamlessly with Citrix and Microsoft software delivery infrastructure and with Citrix’s Enterprise App Store. With BlueStacks, enterprise IT can deliver Android apps securely and effortlessly to any end point running Windows.

The seamless user experience, simultaneous use of Android and Windows apps, and multi-touch enablement are built on ground breaking virtualization technology which requires zero configuration and is transparent to the end consumer.

TAKE NOTE: Once installed, it requires a one time update via the internet and it consumes quite a large amount of data. So for Mobile data bundle users, make sure to have atleast about 250mb there about to have all updates done but for broadband users it is a breeze through. Have fun!
