Microsoft Ruined Windows in c/technology@beehaw.org

My problem is SolidWorks, SpaceClaim, etc. They do not run from my testing in Linux...Later I'll try getting them going in a VM. I just worry about the performance hit.

I researched this a few years ago, but is their a way to get SolidWorks, SpaceClaim etc working on Linux? Or do I have to run a virtual machine with windows?

I like the form factor of the pixel fold, but will upgrade to the Fold 5. I try and skip gen 1 devices. Then follow the subs to see if the bugs get worked out...an example would be the Microsoft Duo. Gen 1 & 2, it never got the polish to the underlying os that it needed. But I was really tempted when gen 2 came out.
