How to run Firefox OS apps without Simulator

Sorry, just making sure, but is there a way to run Firefox OS apps in Firefox WITHOUT the Firefox OS Simulator?

I have the Simulator (I actually have mutliple versions), but I would like to see if there is some way to "trick" Firefox into to thinking that it's Firefox OS so I could just go to the Marketplace and get apps.

Hi Renard d'Allan, I have seen this on Firefox for Android. You can install apps from the marketplace.firefox.com website on Firefox for Android.

Certain Apps are available for certain platforms. For example Dictionary downloaded right to my PC.

....but not all. Is there some way to run pretty much all apps on PC? If not, I could just install Android x86 on my laptop and run apps from that.

You can install Firefox Marketplace Apps from your Firefox web browser itself! You can just visit the marketplace (https://marketplace.firefox.com/) and start using the apps. But few apps like cut the rope maybe only available on mobile phones (hence you may have to depend on simulator)

So, you can't run every app on the store without the simulator :/ stink. Android x86 it is. Thanks.
