Being a very long time Windows User, I know most of it’s foibles, as well as it’s strengths. It does a good job of hiding hardware issues, until they cause a major problem. My experience with Linux is mostly though Virtual Machines. I used to use a product called Parallels for Virtual Machines on Windows. I got into VirtualBox after I started using Macs. VirtualBox, being a free alternative to the other solutions started me using it on every computer I owned. Ss long as it was running Windows 8.1, or 10, VirtualBox worked pretty much perfectly, even on my HP Pavilion Mini Desktop - 300-030. Only in the past few weeks of running Linux on it has VirtualBox presented me with problems.
