GROMACS will run fine, and do approximately the same under either OS on
comparable hardware with the same version of gcc, however for production
simulation to be maximally effective you need to arrange for the simulation
process not to be interrupted much. This is easier to arrange on Linux than
Windows. You certainly don't want to be concurrently using either kind of
machine as a desktop, and also you'd prefer not to be logged on to either
machine.
