Running Android applications and games on Windows 8 with mouse is no fun at all. However, latest Windows 8 tablet with touchscreen like Surface Pro is another story totally. And BlueStacks released updated version of BlueStacks App Player that optimized for Windows 8 tablet and notebook with touchscreen. Personally, I don’t have any Windows 8 tablet yet. So can’t test it myself but you might. Try it out and let me know the result.
Android in Windows is not new. And running Windows applications and games in Android is the challenge because Android ARM processor is not as powerful as Intel PC. Android in Chrome OS should be workable because they are using almost the same ARM technology. Hopefully, we can run all the platform software in one hardware very soon.
Download BlueStacks for Windows 8 here.
Only windows 8 ?? no windows 7 ?
Windows 7 version is already there.

Don’t you want to say anything about Windows RT that ported on HTC HD2 ?!

Yup, saw that too. But no public ROM release yet.
Hi Jayce, since this is running on the Surface Pro, it should run on Windows 8 Pro in a normal laptop right? Thanks in advance!
Yes, should be.
