Cant wait to see how Compiz will turn out to be in google’s Android… as it has done for SuSE, ubuntu and other distros!

I wasn’t aware that Android was even available, nice find. Thanks for the post!
Just one note, I don’t think it’s actually necessary to burn the ISO to CD. I’ve been using VirtualBox for a while and it will allow mounting the ISO directly a via VirtualCD.
I dont see android as a potential threat to existing linux desktop destros.. its more like a mobile os .. got a very long way to go to even think ant competing..
