I think there are a lot of gunky software out there that only works on Windows. I tried getting my mom on Linux but I was unable to find any good open source sewing and graphic alternatives to the expensive lock in hardware that she had already bought.

Although I doubt these are the kind of road blocks charities are facing.

“Companion softwares” for hardware are the only thing that still makes me use my Windows VM. In my case it's my children's educative computers which need a real computer to add content.
