Years ago.  My path was Windows  -> Mac -> Linux.

The Mac, although being based on BSD, does things a bit differently.

You may want to give VirtualBox a spin:

Works on Windows, Mac, Linux, and Solaris.  And the virtual disks are
portable between them.  So, the .vdi file you create on your Mac will
also run on any of the other OSes, too.
