ah, this is the point of this thread?
I've seen emulators for android on windows, it gives you a way to preview your site on a phone without having a phone.
Is that what you're talking about?
If so don't the Chrome books run android.
It's the google laptop?
Am I the only one who doesn't see a question in the OP?

I thought the title would be clear enough.... ie... Andriod OS Desktop PC .... ie... Android OS running natively on a desktop pc. Didn't think I would need to "spell it out".
Assume Google had bigger plans and wants to release Android OS as a mainstream OS.
(Am I the only one who can think outside the box and see bigger pictures. I mean people are craving an affordable alternative to Windows these days)

Windows 8 is designed for both touch devices (tables, phones) and desktops (desktops, laptops). You can use both touch or even a keyboard and mouse. So yes, I would define a crossover as something that can run natively of multiple devices just as Windows 8 can.
So how would you feel if Android expanded its self a little and broke outside of its current limits... ie... Could also run natively on a desktop / laptop with a mouse & keyboard, with app support for both as well !?
Why would anyone want to run a mobile OS on a desktop when they could just run Windows? Android might be great on phones, but compared to a "real" OS like Windows it's a bit of a joke. There are just so many problems to overcome I couldn't even begin to list them all. Why spend the time & money to make Android work on your PC when the benefits are so minimal?
Since Intel is starting to make viable processors for phones/tablets then I can see why Android for x86 would be worthwhile. But only because you have an x86 processor in your phone, not because Android is a worthy OS for your desktop.
