I have an idea since there is android OS that you can install in Desktop and run your computer like a smartphone. You can be still mined with altcoin using the Remix OS. it might be a good idea if he can develop a new mining software for the Android OS, then it should work on PC with Android OS, less risk and you can run them 24/7 without worrying about the parts because it's replaceable.
Why would you do this though?
I'm thinking it might be beneficial potentially for having a more lightweight OS that doesn't need any dependencies installed as for me: Windows is exceptionally slow: Linux is too confusing with all the dependencies that need installing (well it's difficult for a stupid person like me anyway).
The only issue being that if you don't use an emulator (which would just slow things down) you have to have an ARM processor don't you for it to be compatible with the OS - unless they've updated how it works now anyway?
