    Like the title said...I have a 4 year old laptop with Win 10 on it with 4GB. Could I get a copy of latest Android and clean install it on this laptop any way? If so can you point me to downloads and how to install. Thanks.

    I fully agree with taviruni. Go with a small footprint Linux as he suggested.

    I did some research thru youtube videos and tried an OS of Chrome called PhoenixOS,which gives you Android Nougat 7.1. Not bad and easy to do. I now get a dual boot option for my Win 10 and this PhoenixOS, Thanks for all who responded.

    Yes, as it's main target user base is Chinese students.
