Android apps will run on Windows 8 OS...Duh RIM why didn't you think about this instead of converting android apps to .bar.

Why would they want to do that? No one will write native apps. Windows might as well just run android. I expect to see a lot of post like this, or is it different since it is not RIM?

I guess MS or Bluestacks thought RIM had a good idea.

Hopefully developers will run native applications as they will run much smoother and better.

My experience is that the native apps run much better without crashing than the converted Android apps. I will always take a native app over an Android app if available.
