If only it were that easy. it’s not. And besides. With 50k worth of software it’s not worth the hassle of linux with WINE and any other emulator to save a few bucks. The high end software is not supported outside of ‘approved’ hardware and software.
I think you misunderstood. You will be running a FULL version of MS as an Operating System “Inside” an isolated “Virtual Machine” on top of the Linux as needed. The software will be running in a full MS environment and MS OS of it’s own. It is not smart enough to know that the MS environment is actually running inside Linux. This also helps isolate any MS threats away from the Linux base system and drive.
Dive into “Virtual Machines”...
It is not WINE and any other emulator... It will be a full installation of MS... But running inside of Linux in it’s own “box”.
