A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My issue with Linux is that I run certain software that's only available on Windows. E.g. I edit video in Cyberlink. I have many old projects which I still need to be able to open, so can't use a Linux one. Also for my work I need to use Windows Desktop Client for AVD's which I believe is only available for Windows. I've tried dual booting, but then I would just stick with Windows where I can do everything I need.
That being said, I'm not married to Windows, so if there is an easy solution for this, I'd be keen to explore.
