    A lot of you already know that I use an OSX operating system for getting onto Garry's Mode and other nice things.

    ...Well, it goes without saying, but it sucks. Hard. I've endured enough jackassery with regard to sub-par performance and program accessibility that I recently decided to try out Boot Camp.

    As an annoucement, I will now be able to assist more in areas such as configuring accessories, prop adjustments (?) and possibly other areas that feeble Macs dare not to tread lest they be struck dead.

    I installed Windows 10 just yesterday and I'm never going back; it should have been done a lot sooner. (Well, Windows will at least be designated as a 'slave' for running most downtime-related things. The next thing on my things-to-do list will be to increase the storage capacity of Windows over filthy OSX.

    I was once lost, but now I have found Boot Camp.
    (Blasphemy unintended.)

    I don't know anything about virtual machines, but it is likely that anything else beyond Boot Camp is not going to exhibit the greatest capacity/versatility to run different program types and games.

    On another note, when I first used boot camp I was unaware that partition size could be adjusted. From that resulted in a measily 22 GB of free space (the other 16 is the OS itself and ither boot camp-is things. It took several tries to make sure nothing critical would be overwritten (which if that happened I would have been screwed), but eventually I ramped up the size allocation to 68 max.
