Here's a very interesting dual-boot product for pads and the like:
http://www.amiduos.com/[^]
This is by the AMI BIOS (American Megatrends) people.
That would be kind of cool to have a device you can dualboot to either OS. only $9.99

Hunh?
That's like saying "You've got Windows 7, now install Windows 8, instead!"
What?
Oh, you mean...?
Nah!
I don't believe you!
No-one in the world is daft enough to overwrite Win 7 with Win 8!

It would be very interesting if it worked on a windows phone...

It'd be a lot funnier if you could load Android on an iPhone.

Yeah, say something newer, fresher and more hip, like Kenny & Dolly (Rogers and Parton).

Interesting. I wonder if you could hook up another computer, running, say, Eclipse or IntelliJ, and actually use the Android/Windows doohickey as the device you're testing your software on.

Wondered that myself. One of the comments says that it runs better than Genymotion. Isn't Genymotion suppose to be for developers?
Doesn't mean it will, just asking the question. 
Further research found this page: enabling adb connection[^]
My best guess is yes.
Jack of all trades, master of none, though often times better than master of one.

Their main page says "Run Android Apps in Windows"
That doesn't sound like dual-booting to me. Not sure how it's different from, say, BlueStacks.

Just seen a question where the OP has a Windows application with "dataGridView18" and "textBox63" - I can only imagine what the form looks like...

Nowadays we don't have to care about all that low level stuff anymore. Everything has been dumbed down sufficiently that we can build any monstrosity without having to worry about anything.
So, will you now be so kind and also drink the Coolaid?

It's not just the sheer number of controls - though that is a eye-watering concept - it's the use of VS default names for them all.
I'd hate to have to maintain code like that: I'd end up hunting down and slaughtering the individual concerned, and claiming "pest control" as my defence...

The iPhone's code must be easy then. Just handle Button1's click event

You mean you change the default names, I haven't changed since day one and I'm up tp textBox1201136. It's like collecting rubber bands and making a ball with them.

Back when I was lecturing, I used to give a few marks for proper control naming. Effectively free marks. I repeatedly underscored this, but even so, out of the couple of hundred I lectured, probably only about 10 did it. Some even re-sat the test after I'd gone through the how I marked the original and still didn't shift themselves. Worse, you got the occasionalnon-functional code where it was clear they'd got confused where textBox12 was the user name and textBox13 was the forename and mucks-dipped the validation, but I couldn't give marks.
Quite an eye-opener.

I always wonder why people keep going in such a fashion. No matter how confused they get, no matter how much time they waste, they never take a step back and try to eliminate the cause of their problems.
In the end they deliver a complete mess and proudly proclaim that it works.

And this is precisely why working software should NOT be taken as the holy grail of measurements. Yes it may work, but it may be inefficient, difficult to maintain or extend, undocumented and show a complete lack of any form of design.
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare
