>Linux users should get the best possible experience on the system, so should the windows users. If a better emulator is available on windows why should they get shafted? Linux tools even have the advantage that they may not need full emulation in the first place, but instead we end up with the worst of both worlds.
You seem to be under the impression that if you develop a cross platform solution that it's going to be inherently inferior. I disagree with that and the new Android emulator is proof of that. It's superior to the MS Android emulator in every way and it's also available on all 3 platforms.
>In my experience nothing about android development works very well on any platform.
In that case you probably don't have much experience developing for Android.
>I'm not a huge fan of MS, but windows phone development and tools are an absolute dream in comparison.
If developing for windows platform is a dream then why is their app store a cesspool filled with horrible looking apps?
