I haven't looked at VMWare Fusion, but that was always a bit weak compared to Parallels.

I already have a custom PC in here hooked up to a KWM and kick over to play a game now and again. Haven't had any .NET work in a while, so it's been all Mac for me when working.
Gotcha. If you're needing x86/64, you're ****ed. Shame, because it runs ARM Windows really well...

I've got a M1 Macbook Pro, and an M1 iMac for work. Mini on the way eventually. Really impressive little machines. When the software developers have a chance to catch up with Silicon coded versions/drivers/extensions, the performance is going to be even better.
