You might as well buy a PC with Windows, if that’s what you want.

No point in running Windows bare metal on a Mac. You don’t really need it in a VM either. My mini doesn’t have enough RAM for a VM of anything, only 8 GB, you need 8 GB per OS at a minimum. In the case of my desktop, 16 GB per OS. Except, Linux gets 32 GB all the time, the Windows VM is never booted anymore. Is the Zyxel software that works with my NETGEAR powerline adapters available for macOS? That’s the only software I might need that might require Windows.

Damn, looks like Windows only.
