“I’m thinking of building myself a new computer ...”

First thanks to the others that replied to my question.

I’m thinking of “having built” rather than “building”. I like the idea of a virtual machine running both.

I’m tangled up in a project that uses an embedded ARM processor and peripherals and haven’t got the brainpower to deal with PC issues at the same time.

Of course, with a powerful enough system, you could just get a standard Windows 11 Pro system and install a full blown Linux distribution as a virtual guest using Virtual Box.

VirtualBox provides a seamless interface between virtual guests and the host system so that both can share the same desktop.

If you have two screens, you can put the Windows desktop on one and the Linux desktop on the other.
