Jide,
the company behind Remix OS, has announced that it’ll be releasing an
x86 version (an older version based on 32-bit architecture) of Remix OS
as a free global download.
According
to Jide, Remix OS might completely eliminate the need of owning a
hardware for a personal computer. It would be more like plug and play
system because Remix OS can be stored on something as small as a USB
stick and then just plugged into any old hardware. Minimum requirements
for the OS are a USB 3.0 flash drive that supports the FAT32 format with
a minimum capacity of 8GB (and a recommended writing speed of 20MB/s)
and a PC that supports booting from a USB.Also read: World’s First True Android PC “Remix Mini” Costs Just $20
“In
emerging markets where computer hardware is inaccessible for many,
Remix OS aims to make personal computing more accessible than ever
before. Individuals will no longer need to rely on personal desktops or
laptops to create, store, and manage data, they will merely need to be
within walking distance of a device–in their village, in libraries, in
internet cafes, or in community centers.”
