I still use windows 7 in a vm for a legacy program. Works really well. Is hugely faster than any modern windows. Even in the vm. I have to run an old version of tortoisesvn. Needless to say the vm is only connected to a local network.

>I prefer to have as much native compatibility as possible with DOS applications such as older games I own.
