Google for: "appdb your-game-here" and you'll find out how well it is supported. If you want something for gaming you either go with: The virtual environment doesn't have direct access to the video hardware (because Ubuntu is using it) so any acceleration is software based (there is a 3D layer provided by Wine - but it's very slow and buggy). Gaming in a virtualised environment is a no-go. I strongly suggest you attempt a migration to something like OpenOffice or LibreOffice or even something internet-based like Google Documents (which adds on extra collaborative features). Trying to keep yourself locked to Office is usually a recipe for failure. I'm not sure I'd bother with it for MS Office. If you have a license of that, you'll probably find it runs faster. You typically want the lightest possible operating system and for most modern support that's still Windows XP. While we're talking about virtualisation, I would perhaps suggest not installing Windows 7 as a virtualised "guest".
You can (as I do) run Adobe CS4 applications in it just fine and the performance is still fairly good too. It only refers to one software product, that is VirtualBox.Īs far as virtualisation software goes, yes, it's pretty good.
