    Is there a way to run apps on my computer? That would be pretty great with the larger screen and faster processor.

    Thanks.

    I have no idea if it’s any good; just had the link lying around.

    Used it for awhile a few months ago.

    It worked pretty well. But it pretty much useless for even simple 2D games, where you think where more power would shine. Worked fine for normal apps though. I don't know if performance has improved since then.

    I tried to install it but got a message that said that my graphics or drivers weren't high performance and I would be l limited.

    I wouldn't have thought that an Android Optimus V would have 'high performance' graphics.

    BlueStacks is anywhere from fantastic to terrible, depending on the app you want to run on it. It's free, so download it, install it and try it. (It takes a while to figure it out - allow a couple of hours.) I love it for the apps I run on it - a few radio apps (so I can listen to a few things on decent speakers), a TV guide type program, etc. Could it be better? Sure. Am I complaining? Not even if I had to pay a couple of bucks.
