I've been on mint for a while. Here's a tip for anyone who needs some windows apps that won't work in Linux.
VM workstation 17 is free and is fast as balls. With plug and play pass through too.
Any clue how it handles Illustrator?
Unfortunately not. But I'd imagine flawless. You know of a free way to test?
I'll give it a shot!
Why would you want that on Linux? We already have qemu KVM which can be used via libvirt. Just install virtual manager and be done with it.
The speed you are seeing is the same as KVM
Slow down. VMware can be one click and done. All these alternatives and extras and configurations are the reason windows people don't try Linux. Don't over complicate a simple thing. If they want new or more they can figure that out at a later date.
VMware is much harder to setup as it requires additional setup
You just install virt-manager and reboot. That's it.
VMware requires you to click on the downloaded install and click yes a bunch of times before it's finished.
Exactly. That's way more complicated and requires loading external software not packaged by distros. Meanwhile virt manager is very easy to install and it is in the repos pretty much everywhere. You also could use gnome boxes as it doesn't even need root. It is just a flatpak
Can you test. paint.net for me
Lol really? Edit: oh! My bad thought this was something else. Gimme a minute I'll run through it
