The Dell Venue 8 Pro is a nice little tablet that got released not so long ago. The slate was offered by Microsoft this week at a super affordable price and supplies didn't last long.

That’s because the Venue 8 Pro features an 8-inch display with a resolution of 1280 x 800 pixels, capable of delivering crisp images when users are browsing photos were streaming videos. Dell has added a Bay Trail Atom CPU Z33740D processor coupled with 2GB of RAM under the bonnet, to boost performance and extended battery life.

The default operating system on the tablet is Windows 8.1, but now it appears a user has found a way to port Android on the device as well.

So far we don’t know how exactly he pulled it off (he mentions he’s running a virtual machine through a software called Genymotion), but his tablet now features a dual-boot sort of system for switching between operating systems. Check the video to see for yourselves.
