content: I run a laptop with five different VMs on it for work. VMware is a great environment and basically equivalent to bare metal once you get it set up. At home I run Linux Mint, and its a really great feeling not having my computer pozzed by the NSA / Deep State. (Beyond hardware vulnerabilities).  Wine runs a lot of my legacy windows software, VMs take up the slack, and whatever else I'm missing I just don't  use or fire up my work laptop. Windows just isn't worth it anymore.
