You where seriously considering the other option was more viable ?

an actual dual booting tablet, Yeah! I still have to have two tablets now, with a dual booter I would only need one.

I personally find it kinda not so useful, you have to boot into another OS, while with this we have both working at the same time

Win8 tablets with the capability to use android apps is not bad. Compatibility with all the apps will be great. I hope Asus won't make the same mistake seen in the BB Playbook whereas only the droid apps submitted by devs are usable.

Fans will find some way to hack and dual boot. I'm sure about that.

Knew it, no one will want that laggy OS to spoil the smooth system of Windows 8.
