Anyone double booting a tablet form factor like the X12 or even the X1 Titanium yoga with Android (x86)?

I cannot fully migrate to an android tablet for productivity but having a Windows tablet with the added possibility of switching to an Android tablet on the same machine, seems like a win. Emulation is kind of a hassle, and Microsoft already killed the Windows Subsystem for Android (WSA).

IIRC Android x86 is stuck at Android 9.0. That's not a good thing with regards to security vulnerabilities.

Dual-booting works well if you can seamlessly share data between the two OSes. Otherwise it's just a pain in the backside.
