Re: Try out Android on your pc
Hi zing
Kudos for testing Android.
I've tried running it from a LiveCD but no joy.
Says 'Detecting Android-x86' then draws lots of dots ........
I gave it up after nearly half an hour.
Probably my PC is too dated to load Android.
Never mind.

Re: Try out Android on your pc
I got it working on my Mac a while ago using a VM but wasn't keen as its still quite Phone/Touch Screen oriented I would be interested to try out a proper netbook/android combo though.
