 Hey, this is Tom Warren for The Verge and I'm here with John from Bluestacks and he's going to talk us through Android on Windows 8. So as you can see here we've got Windows 8 Metro UI and Android apps inside of it. This is coming out later this year and the announcement today from Bluestacks is that we've cracked running Android apps in the Windows ecosystem. So we're bringing 400,000 apps to Windows 8 which is a big improvement over where it is at least at this moment. So here we're in drag racing, a very popular Android app. So 1.3 billion PCs out there, no one's ever played drag racing bigger than a few inches big on a phone. So it's pretty big implications there. As you can see touch is really responsive in Windows 8. And we're not only touch, like I said, all in ones, desktops, ultrabooks. There you go. So that's drag racing. Our compatibility in our beta which is coming out in February, right now our alpha is available for download but the beta is coming out in February. Compatibility for beta is way high, it's around 90%. A lot of the things that don't work are things that are built for a phone specifically having to do with dialing and ringtones and stuff like that. Even accelerometer we have something where it shows you the sort of angle of your device and you can actually play accelerometer apps really nicely. And is this going to come in the Windows store in February? Yes, there will be something in the Windows store. The main kind of channel that people download BlueStacks and it is a Windows program and installs like any other Windows program and will in Windows 8 as well is via our website bluestacks.com. We're also announcing a relationship with In Home which is a Taiwanese OEM. They have an ultrabook coming out, a Windows 7 ultrabook in March and a Windows 8 ultrabook later in the year that will come preloaded with BlueStacks. And we're talking with a lot of the bigger players right now about preloading this so that when you get your Win 7 or Win 8 all in one, ultrabook, what not, tablet, it's just got everything there. As you can see even in the Windows 7 look, there's Metro UI, there's Windows 7, you'll have an Android apps folder. The big thing for us when the beta comes out in February and by the time our Windows 8 edition of BlueStacks comes out is just making it really easy to understand for the average user, non-techy who doesn't want to set up a fancy emulator. It's very intuitive so you can just open your Android apps folder and there they are just like Windows programs. Okay, so is there going to be a way for you to sync apps? Absolutely. That's a really critical part of this. So we have something called BlueStacks Cloud Connect and it's an Android app. You can get it in the Android market and whether you have an Android tablet or phone, and you can actually do this now with our alpha version but it will be even easier in our beta in February and on Win 8. You just download the app and it says, okay, Tom, here are the apps on your Android device. Which ones do you want to use in BlueStacks on your PC? You tick the boxes of the ones you want. You hit sync. That's all there is to it. When you get to your PC, right in front of you or a thousand miles away, your PC which has BlueStacks installed as a normal Windows program gets that and a little thing comes up in your sys tray that says Angry Birds has been installed, Cut the Rope has been installed and you can just play them. And later in the year we'll be able to even sync the data between, so if you're halfway through Cut the Rope on the plane and you get home to your Windows PC, you'll be able to resume it full screen. Absolutely. Thank you.
