RemixOS is based on Android 4.4.2, but it is proprietary. Not sure how I feel about that. Why not make the OS open source?

- drew-y 12y agoThat ruins it for me.
- snarkyturtle 12y agoBecause it's mostly just to sell their Microsoft Surface clone: http://www.jide.com/en/desktop/ultra_tablet.html http://www.jide.com/en/desktop/ultra_tablet.html
- finid 12y agoI don't actually mind them selling their hardware, just make the OS freely downloadable and installable on any hardware, just like we do Linux distributions now.
- snarkyturtle 12y agoYeah it would be fine if they took the Cyanogen route. There are ton of Android distros that put their spin on things. But to have something closed-source and (from what I can see) is only available on their own hardware is a big no-no in this day and age.
