But android is horrible, HORRIBLE, OS. Why would you want it on your PC. Only reason I can see is to run it in VM for development purposes. Should be faster than emulation.

It's pretty good for a phone, but definately bad for a desktop. By the way, x86 VMs for development have been there for many years. It runs way better than their ARM counter-parts of course.

And yet many more people would probably prefer it to that "horrible, HORRIBLE" Linux OS. Considering the sad state of software available for Linux I wouldn't mind seeing a fully backed Google effort. And with multi-window support coming it could turn out to be a very good desktop OS.
