For those who would like to try Google's mobile operating system but do not want to purchase Vodafone's HTC Magic the developers at Live-Android have created a program that will allow you to run Android from a PC or notebook without the need to install it. 

All you need to do is download the image, burn it onto a disc and reboot your computer and you'll be able to experience Android without any danger of affecting your files on your PC. And if you have programs like VirtualBox or Microsoft Virtual PC you can run Android using them without needing to reboot your computer.

The program is easy to use and it helps users get acquainted to Android, which is set to appear on smartphones by multiple mobile manufacturers around the world such as Samsung and Sony Ericsson.
