    Two ssds is when you need to run stuff on windows that requires the bare metal.

    Windows needs to be contained, controlled and told who is the boss, I suggest using Tiny11 or MicroXP in a VM for stuff that can’t run in wine.

      Micro xp… I got that to run on a Intel 400mhz laptop with 32mb of mainboard soldered sdram chips. Nothing like a a operating system under 200mb installed with a GUI.

            Okay it’s long for people where it’s 6 years ago they learned to tie their shoes.

            Gramps here still thinks LOTR is a recent movie.

              I’ve been in tech since 2003 in some form or another, I’m right there with you in thinking XP feels recent. My daughter was 2 in 2018, so it’s definitely felt super quick to me too.
