The idea of merging Android apps and Windows it's not new and in some ways you can already do it, but apparently Microsoft itself is currently studying a future mix that will allow the operating system of running Android applications for both desktop computers and Windows Phone devices.
The Verge reports via anonymous sources that a number of Microsoft executives have expressed support for allowing Android apps to run on Windows, but their internal discussions are still ongoing with reports of a number of major flaws that could seriously harm the platform of Windows.
Basically, Microsoft wants to bring Android apps to Windows, not only to increase the number of tools available to its users, but also to slow down the growth of Android as this platform continues to have high-speed growth started two years ago.
Although this could clearly be a major asset for Microsoft, there are some critical disadvantages that Redmond is afraid of, the report says.
First, Android apps in Windows could seriously downgrade Metro applications and Microsoft has already spent a fortune on campaigns that are supposed to bring the company's growth closer and encourage them? users to go to Windows 8.
Δεύτερον απ ‘όλα, η άφιξη των Android εφαρμοφών στο Store θα δημιουργήσει ακόμη μεγαλύτερη σύγχυση στους χρήστες όσο και στους developers και η Microsoft έχει πασχίσει πολύ για να πείσει όλο τον κόσμο με το λανσάρισμα των Windows 8.
Microsoft won't be the first company to incorporate it support Android στην ναυαρχίδα της πλατφόρμας, καθώς το BlackBerry έκανε το ίδιο πράγμα με το BlackBerry 10, και τα μέχρι τώρα αποτελέσματα ήταν πολύ κατώτερα των προσδοκιών.
In Redmond, on the other hand, they obviously plan to use BlueStacks as a core foundation. AMD is already working with BlueStacks and Intel is reportedly pushing Microsoft to increase the focus on technologies that could bring Android applications to Windows.
Verge writes that if Microsoft's plans are to bring Android apps to Windows, it's very unlikely to happen until 2015 when Windows 9 will hit the market.
