[ale] Best way to use both Windows and Linux?

[Beddingfield, Allen]

At work, I have to have a Windows machine for a couple of apps, so I run a copy of Windows in Virtualbox on my Linux system.  At home, I load it up in a VM on the rare occasion I need Windows for something.

ALE List,

For people here who use both Windows and Linux, how do you manage it?

1) Have separate Windows and Linux partitions available for dual boot,
2) Install Windows as a hypervisor and run Linux in a VM, or
3) Install Linux as a hypervisor and run Windows in a VM ?

Each method seems to have it's pros and cons. I'm curious what others
are doing.

Thank you,
Paul Storey
