      I would love to learn and deal with Linux, unfortunately the software I need for work only supports Mac or Win

        It’s possible you can run it through wine, might be worth a try

          Much business oriented software just hasn’t had the work done on it to work on Wine. Really the only reason I have to run Windows now is the 3D CAD software I use and my best option at this point is running it in a Windows VM on my server. And no Freecad and Fusion360 aren’t suitable options, they both suck.
