Don't want to shell out money on a device if you aren't sure if you like Android? Google has released the Android Live CD where you can burn the operating system to a disk and test drive it out. You can either test drive it out on disc or you can install a program such as Virtualbox to run Android in a virtual environment on your main operating system.
Steps:
Go to the Live-Android website.
Download the ISO file.
Using a software such as ImgBurn create a bootable disc.
Put the disc into your personal computer CD/DVD drive. Run the CD to test drive Android.
Warning!
Google acknowledges that Android is not a fully fledged operating system for your personal computer. Don't attempt to replace your operating system with Android -- . Yet! Eventually Google will release Android as an operating system that is capable of powering your laptop or desktop computer.
