I need to get a dedicated linux laptop. I could run Fedora as a VM but dedicated would be preferred.
That's just better in general
But virt-manager on Windows is still better than Hyper-V's tools.

Seems to work fine for me. I have an XP VM and a Server 2016 VM. Both run well on the same box.

KVM is specifically good for that.
