I hear what you are saying. I am thinking about moving over to Linux because
I can run the BBS on a VM which takes less resources and I can run 3 VM's
with no issues or slow downs on 1 computer. Right now I had 3 on a i5 3.5 16
gigs ram and I felt a big slow down when the 3rd VM was added in Virtual Box.
I am now running 2 Windows 10 VM's in QEMU with no slow downs at all, adding
a 3rd I doubt would cause an issues.. That's my spiel..
