Fire up a VM and you can play to your hears content, but
nothing beats putting together the real thing.


No need for VMs in my case, My Coolermaster CM690 II case has a built in
SSD hot swap bay built into the top, I have 5 120GB Samsung and
Kingston SSDs on which I can install any operating system and slip on
one and reboot into any OS I want in about 2 Minutes.
At the moment I have the following OSs available.

Windows 10 Insider
Windows 7
Linux Mint 19.1
MX Linux 18.3
Xenialpup 7.5
And naturally Windows 10 1903 on one NVMe 512GB

So you see I have the best of all worlds All running on really fast
hardware and within 2 minutes reach. :-)

With VMs, you can have all of them running at the same time, so
switching between them is nearly instantaneous. Programs running in a VM
stay running when you switch the focus away. I find that to be very
handy.

I always have 4-6 VMs running, and depending on the project(s) I'm
working on, I may have 20-24 VMs running. That's for work purposes,
though. If I wasn't using them for work, I'd probably only have about 4
running. Once you go VM, you'll never ever go back to multiboot.
