Or do you keep a few Windows/Mac PCs lying around?

You know, just in case you need to run an app/game that only works perfectly on Windows/Mac and WINE/Proton wouldn’t run it?

Been thinking of Linuxifying my Laptop eversince I enjoyed Linux after defecting to it (from Windows) in my main PC (a Desktop).

    Autodesk Inventor, I doubt it. Someone tried but said on wine it works as a garbage. Also, even if I try to run Matlab, which is supposed to work on Linux, I run into an error. There’s a workaround or a patch to fix it, but after I wasted an hour or two, I gave up. There are also other programs which I like, but fail to work on Linux. Linux is great if the only thing you do is programming and IT, or maybe math like LaTEX, but for mechanical engineering or automation industry is simply not capable.
