That means migrating away from VMWare, which is a must for many nowadays, will be even easier. Good news!

My experience : jump ships. Dual-boot is unpractical. I dual-booted my PC at first, but that makes you remain on what’s comfortable, and that’s windows. Swallow the hard pill and leave windows behind. If you’re already working mostly with OSS software (surf with Firefox, use LibreOffice, etc) than it’s not that hard.
