Re^2: [OT] Windows VMs under Linux for running Perl.

Sorry, but I think you missed the purpose of my question. I'm quite happy with my development environment on windows. What I'm looking for is first hand knowledge and guidance of how to set up a Windows VM under Linux such that I can use the Windows environment on that system essentially as if it was the native host of that system.

I've used a couple of flavors of Linux, running in a couple of different types of VM hosted on Windows; and whilst they're pretty good, I've always found them a little clunky.

As I am now looking to set things up the other way, I'm hoping someone might be able to narrow the search space for which VM running on which version of Linux is most l;ikely to give a usable Windows environment with a few quirks and annoyances as possible.

In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
