Quoting: tonRLiam (or anyone). Is running Windows XP on virtualization software considered as dual boot? May need to run XP to use Nokia PC suite for set up old Nokia S40 phone.

I don't make the rules, but my opinion would be that day-to-day active virtualization should count as dual-boot but also you shouldn't count it as a dual-boot if you just briefly touch a Windows system. So if it's just a matter of setting up a phone and you aren't actually using that XP system for anything else, I wouldn't count it.

Especially since this is a gaming oriented survey and you are not using the VM for gaming.

Understood. So, I'm not changing dual-boot question.

Quoting: g000hMaybe you could access your Nokia Suite software using WINE instead?

Well, using WINE is kinda hit-and-miss and happened once time my phone got factory reset, try it before and won't do it again.
Also, I'm afraid to run XP directly without any sandboxing nowadays. Especially my Win XP is "buried treasury" version.

Quoting: damarrinGreat writeup, Phil, thanks for taking the time to do this. Observing trends is always very interesting and GOL's stats are a splendid tool.

Cheers! I actually surprised myself with how long it came out. Guess it was a slow lockdown day here in Melbourne.

I feel a great disturbance in the Force.

Huh, I got the same notification (with the last update day being one day later).
