Thanks for all the detail. Yep, not so much about the question I asked, but no harm, no foul, I do the same thing too. =)

I have Ubuntu installed on a small laptop I have, and from the get-go I found it easy to use. And the fact I had to do sudo type things thrilled the geek in me. At long last that famous "sudo make me a sandwich" XKCD comic made sense.

When I researched Ubuntu before installing it on the laptop, I'd discovered the Unity/KDE/XFCE/LXDE kerfuffle, and did research about each before deciding on Unity. Off the top of your head, can you see any benefits/problems regarding installing a VM to run Windows, if one were to choose one of the five over the others?
