Yea, so... I spun up a Win10 VM in Proxmox with no issues at all. I mainly use
it to use RIPtel for calling RIP boards; but at least I have Windows if NEEDED
now. :P

No, I bought it with no OS - but I have a Win10 key that I bought online
somewhere... Windows is a funny beast, the copy I have doesn't even ask for a
key at all... I think I remember that maybe it asks you after 30 days or
whatever. Also, the .iso had "activated" in the filename so... who knows. Either
way I have a valid key - maybe I need to hunt down where to enter it in.
And, I installed Windows 10. With 11 right around the corner, I do want to
upgrade to it... especially since this install isn't super important or what I
use on the daily.
