• I'm sure you can set up some sort of VM to do this right?

    Bootcamp if you have an older intel Mac. It's pretty much free to use if you have a windows license key.

    Parallels is the user friendly VM. It's remarkably expensive now though. And you still need a windows license. IIRC anyway.

    Is this the way to go?

    Neither is free. If the niche program is undemanding, a cheapo used laptop might actually be cheaper than running parallels long term.

  • Right. OK.

    I had this recollection of the collective online response to using another OS always being "just set up a VM".

    Idk what mac they have, but assume their main one is a new M1 and their other one would probably be an Intel.
