They give it away for free because more people running Android is more people using apps that generate revenue for Google. Windows/Android dual-boot just means the device will run Android less than a pure Android device would.


Right now, there aren't any laptops running android though right? Wouldn't getting android into laptops in some form or fashion be better than nothing?

Not necessarily. Full Win8 (with the ability to run dekstop Windows programs) vs Android on a machine with a physical keyboard and a touchpad isn't really a fair comparison, and it could very well hurt the perception of Android.

Windows basically kicks the shite out of Android on a laptop, and if I were Google I wouldn't want people to be comparing the two on the same machine, either.
