Hi y'all, Interesting faux pas on the Bluestacks web page: Trying to download using Debian it switches to a page with lots of fuss but only one wee information: "Your operating system is not supported" Hey guys! I can download anything with any OS and install it on my MAC or any MS-Windows OS I own if I choose to - NOT? The developers or sales people of Bluestack seem to live in a very, but very narrow world. So short answer is: Bluestack not available on Linux. Cheers Eike
