I'm not really considering linux an option, because developers obviously cater to the overwhelming market share for windows. Linux and MacOS are afterthoughts, and you have to keep in mind that some software won't run on the platforms.
Yeah right, I'm sure you work for MS and you just created this account for that stupid post of yours
Anyways, I use wine on linux to run legacy windows softwares, it works great, I'm sure there are still stuffs that don't work that great with wine or not at all but I don't care. Also you're not forced to use windows as your main OS, you can go for dual boot/partitioning or even install it on an external hard drive https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtajCp2wd5Q
Wine Is Not an Emulator, just so you know
