Forked version of Android plays cool with x86 hardware

Forked version of Android plays cool with x86 hardware

Unveiled at CES, Remix OS is forked version of Android Lollipop designed specifically to play nice with x86 hardware. Best yet, it's said to look and feel like a true desktop OS. 

The Verge scoped it out during CES and noted the presence of a start menu, a notification tray and even the ability to right-click. And because it's Android at the core, Google's full mobile app ecosystem is on tap. Apps, by the way, can be run in individual windows or full screen and a version of Remix OS based on Android Marshmallow is in the pipeline.

We're working on Remix OS 2.0 and wanted to give all the Remixers out there a little taste of what's next for Remix OS! And here's the best part... it's only gonna get better! There's more to come, so stay tuned and check us out at http://tinyurl.com/remixmini while our Remix Mini campaign is still live!

This isn't another scam like console OS is it?

Console OS scammed 70k out of peoples pockets and is basically android x86 with another name.

You can read about it on the android x86 offical site.
