Default Microsoft sacrifices promising Andromeda to Android monster

Where is Perseus when you need him?

Software King of the World Microsoft has abandoned plans for its own mobile operating system.

Andromeda, which was named after the Virgin princess who was chained to a rock to be eaten by a sea monster to get her parents out of trouble with Poseidon, has been sacrificed to Google’s Android.

Windows Central got its paws on a pre-release build of Microsoft's cancelled Andromeda OS running on a Lumia 950 and said that it was rather a pity the OS was not saved.

Vole apparently tried to do something unique with Andromeda OS, and build out OS experience around a journaling/inking experience.

On the lockscreen, the user could take notes directly onto the lockscreen UI just by putting pen to screen without initiating a special mode, or enter an app first, just take your Surface Pen and begin writing.
