No snark. Run Widoze in a VM under Linux. It actually runs faster. Hard to believe but it is true. I develop for Doze. I run my development environment in a VM under Linux. My compiles are 30% faster. There is a bit of a learning curve running Linux, but some builds are very Windows user friendly. I actually run this particular machine from an external drive. Try doing that with Windows. You can’t.

“Run Widoze in a VM under Linux.”

There are some programs, a couple of games and something else (Forgotten what) that I encountered using a setup like that which would not work. I’d get an error message “This application cannot execute in a virtual machine”
