First, installation

Bluestacks App Player volume is about 117MB, is a more "component" software, this article is based on the Bluestacks Alpha version, the current bluestacks has ended the alpha phase, entered the beta phase, you need to go to the official Network (click into) provide email address, after the official audit can be downloaded.

Run Bluestacks, you will find that it will always only run in Full-screen state, there is no "window" concept, a dark background a little too simple.

Bluestacks interface

There are four buttons on both sides of the bottom, the back and close buttons on both sides, and the middle from left to right: menu, full screen run app, enlarge App window, and display application library. Take a closer look, you will find that the bottom button design style, very Microsoft WP7 operating system flavor, is really "mixed" everywhere ah.
