          Anonymous, 29 Jan 2014But its hardware are not sufficent for proper duel booting.the bootloader doesn't allow proper dualbooting, but you can make it dual boot if you want to, actually.

          I suspect they decided that it would provide a lesser experience to dual boot without a really nice UI.

                    I was excited until I read it wouldn't be dual-bootable with Windows Phone.

                    It makes sense though.

                                    Protocol, 29 Jan 2014This phones looks cool. There's Intel inside so I guess it'... moreUbuntu touch does support x86.
                                    Also sailfish os should be easier to port to x86 than arm. So possibilities are there enough of.
