Then why not run your favorite *nix and stick windows in a VM for the few applications that don't support Linux?

- Keyframe 10y agoGreat question. I use, all the time, applications which need full speed and full GPU support of which some are only on Linux and some are only on Windows and there's some overlap where most from both are on MacOS. Simple VM doesn't cut it, I've tried.
- floatboth 10y agoWhat about the other way around, Windows host + *nix VMs? I run FreeBSD in VirtualBox, forwarding apps to VcXsrv via PuTTY. Works very well. I even made a tray icon script to launch that setup https://github.com/myfreeweb/xvmmgr/blob/master/xvmmgr.psm1 https://github.com/myfreeweb/xvmmgr/blob/master/xvmmgr.psm1 :)
