Tried it. I definitely like Winboat for its ease if installation and its GUI. It's much more accessible than Winapps (its primary competitor), but it's still kinda buggy. Windows don't always open as expected (delayed open or not at all). I'm sure it'll get resolved in time, but for now, Winapps is still more reliable, despite being a significant pain in the ass to set up.
Thanks - appreciated.. looking to fully convert the wifes pc to Linux so looking at all options.
