Remix OS is the modified version of android which is based on the android-x86 OS. The remix OS is designed to run on Intel and AMD processors. This is a Linux based operating system and is currently not that powerful to fully use the computer's hardware resources. JIDE technology has developed this operating system so that you can run android on your Windows PC or MAC computer without even wiping your C:\ drive because the OS runs on a bootable USB device and you can anytime go back to your original operating system.

Currently, the Remix OS is in alpha testing, so most apps are not working on it. You should wait for the stable version. Till then if you want to experience android on your computer (PC) then we are here to teach you.
