What do you guys think? I'm currently running a tri-boot on my laptop (W10, Ubuntu & Remix), and I'm pleased with how it's working, especially for an alpha version.

Here's some screenshots if you were interested:

Looks simple, but nice. Are there a lot of bugs since you stated that it is an Alpha version?

Well, a couple things need to be changed, like you can't play any game that requires gyroscope or accelerometer input. Also, right clicking in the main desktop brings up a context menu, but in an app such as Chrome you still have to long-press like on a phone. Also, the version of Android-x86 it's based on doesn't support HD video. YouTube is capped at 360p and if you try to play anything higher than that it freezes.

Other than that, it's been pretty solid for me.

I like the design of the remix os 2.0 , that uses the windows 10 theme , i also like that it uses the android enviroment for the apps, bad part is when you update the os you loose all the apps installed and files Sad hope they fix that in a new release , cuz the os has potencial .

Pros :
-Multitasking
-Frendly Design
-Android Apps

Cons :
-Updates deletes all apps
