If you need Windows-only applications (in particular, the MS Office suite), you may run into problems on Linux. There are "equivalents" for Linux, but, for example, if you want to be able to send someone a .pptx and know that it will look the same on their Windows computer as it does on yours, you would either need to run Windows navively on the machine, or run it inside a virtual machine.
