In the immediate challenge of Windows in terms of popularity none
the system does not have much chance. A condition that lasts a good two
decades, probably for a long time will not change. Does not mean
that on the market there are interesting, usually free of
alternatives. One of the latest is the Remix OS – free system
OS based on Android, which we can also use
on an ordinary PC. Version numbered 2.0 recently is
available for download. Let’s find out what’s in it and what we can find
functionality we can count this software.
What is a Remix OS
Remix OS built on Android Lollipop .
No wonder that the software at a glance
graphically strongly resembles the product of Google. In fact
however, it offers much more. The most important difference is
the ability to simultaneously work in multiple windows, and also developed
taskbar very similar to the one we know even from the menu
Start Windows. Thanks to the infrastructure based on Android Remix
OS easily copes with commands issued to touch, but
all the operations you can perform with your mouse and
keyboard.
Management
file system Remix OS is very easy. Probably because
concept folder structure is similar to that of Windows.
System capabilities
System Remix OS in its basic functionality is no different
like any other solutions for computers
personal. After its launch, we can freely use
with available applications, office suites,
watch movies or surf the web . available commands
and an interface also did not differ from that to which the
accustomed! Each icon can be positioned freely and
drag on the desktop, a list of available options is obtained after
right-click, and the size of the windows
application or file manager can adapt to their own
preferences.
What programs
Thanks to the Remix OS running on Android, we can freely
enjoy all the applications that are compatible with this
a mobile system. Version Remix OS 2.0 does not have a built-in store
Google Play, but you can install it from external sources.
Just download the installation file from KŚ + , or visit www.jide.com , and then run it
within the system.
When we succeed, at our disposal is more than 1.5
million applications – from regular games by tools
publishing, and media players ending. however, it is
keep in mind that not every application can properly display
on the monitor – some of them were eventually written for
mobile screens and is tailored to them are their interfaces.
Can replace Windows?
Like most, provided that we expect from the system only
standard functionality, use a computer mainly for work.
Remix OS makes it possible to work on documents, connect
external drives, web browsing, playing games, watching
films and other simple tasks. More professional tasks are
yet unattainable by the lack of applications.
The current state of development Remix OS,
treated more as a curiosity, but the system has a lot of potential.
It is an interesting alternative for those who love the functionality
Android and are not afraid to experiment

what Remix run OS?
In theory Remix OS, you can run on any
PC , including computers manufactured by
Apple. Not all hardware system will work equally
smoothly – the company Jide recommends the use of his work after
save it to USB 3.0. If your computer has the
port, the use of Remix OS should be much more pleasant.
Otherwise, we have to arm yourself with a lot of patience.
Not only the mouse and keyboard
The system can be operated using both mouse and keyboard,
and touch gestures. The second case requires, of course,
the appropriate screen, but if our monitor has this feature, nothing
no obstacle to further resemble PC
tablet.
Creators Remix OS
The creation of a system Remix OS corresponds to a small company Jide.
Owes its origins successful campaigns crowdfundingowym – on
sites such as Kickstarter managed to collect the money between
other projects Remix Mini (minicomputer) and the Remix Ultra Tablet
(Tablet of the power of your laptop). Derivative financial success in both
cases is to further develop the original system, ie Remix
OS’s.
