A new service from California-based chip designer AMD will enable customers to download and use popular Android mobile apps on PCs running Windows 7 and the forthcoming Windows 8 operating system. It’s available on AMD-based computers and uses the AMD AppZone Player, a program powered by technology from BlueStacks.
BlueStacks, which is backed by AMD’s investment arm, already offers its own stand-alone Android ‘player’ for other PCs and Macs.
