    I envy the people who live a life that enables them to just ditch Windows like that.

    One day…

      I switched like 25 years ago. For a long time I had a Windows partition for booting up games, until Microsoft stopped accepting my old licenses. Luckily I really didn’t care at that point.

          Does it need to be mobile (laptop)? Or only usage at home?

                I thought virtualising GPU effectively was not possible, since the both the host as the guest are using it?

                  They don’t create a virtual GPU. There is abstraction layer to pass reqests through.
