Ah old days... I used to boot into Windows 10 just for gaming but when Valve's Proton matured to the point that all my games could work on Linux I very happily nuked it out of existence. But yeah if someone plays Fortnite or needs Adobe products then you still can't do much unfortunately.

I only played via Steam so I wouldn't know. I hear it's a good deal, but I've made it a point to not accept such good deals from BigTech. Have gotten screwed over too many times. Remember when Google Photos allowed unlimited storage?

I don't do either, but I still need Windows. Some software just needs native communication with hardware devices and wine is still not there yet.

That's what virtualization is for.

You can't have native SATA support with virtualization... at least not that I'm aware of... and I need that.

This isn't a real solution, but I've run it fine through Amazon on Chrome while using Linux.
