   I need Windows Adobe Reader for my state tax forms, and my aging HP   
   color laser printer is not fully supported by hplip. (Diagnostics   
   mostly. When something goes wrong, hplip just says "device communication   
   error" which is not helpful.)   
      
   So, I keep a Win7 guest in VirtualBox. All I need for now, though I'm   
   thinking I'll eventually have to downgrade to Win10.
