I'll look into that, sounds like it may be the way to go.

Really cheap would be using Oracle Box (free last I checked) on your
current machine to create a virtual machine environment, then build the
Windows machine inside, and you've got a temporary Win7 or Win10 machine
whenever you need it.

Cheap in computing terms often doesn't include function.
For $400+ you can get a reasonably modern, functional, machine.

I wanted to keep it cheap just to do a few things. Not going to be for

Last year I picked up a Thinkpad T420, I think it is a 2013 model, for
about $100 on eBay. Add a new battery for $30, copy of Win7 for $70,
nice
SSD hard drive for another $50, and that is a really nice little
machine.
Very fast.
The Win7 Pro 64 bit license key is on the sticker on the bottom of the
machine, but I don't have a copy of the media to install that. I could
have avoided paying for the Win7 Home edition that I bought.
