What BlueStacks does is essentially let your computer switch between running Windows and Android. Now this isn’t something that requires a reboot to change the OS, it’s as instant as minimizing a window on your desktop. When running Android, you can open up any app from the marketplace, and run it just like you would on your phone or tablet.

No shit whatsoever. Probably not as handy as this, but it’s free, and it works. Used to use it to play that Alchemy game.
