I recently put the free VM from VMWare on my Linux desktop and bought a Win-10 Pro disk off eBay for $25.
But doesn't sound legitimate or legal.
It's kinda' clunky but not as clunky as Wine (to me.)
I find Windows on VM to be very slow and doesn't pick up my native screen resolution.
I bought a new laptop at Christmas with Win-10. I was planning to set it up for dual-boot, but I'm reading that Win updates like to overwrite the boot-loader so I might just leave it Win and live with it.
I was dual booting but, like you, found that Windows updates wiped the boot manager. I'm thinking of buying a cheap Win laptop just for the things I can't do in Linux.
