    Hia folks

    I'd like to try to run some old PC games on my Android tablet. Anyone

    Are any of your games Linux based games?

    Don't know about Windows running on Android but all the common distros of
    Linux & their desktops run on non-root Android (right alongside Android).

    If so, install free Andronix & then add your fav Linux distro of choice.
