Switching to Linux from Win10

Yes and no it seems.
What I gather, it comes down to what you want out of it. Inotherwords, if you want 4K resolution, looks like you gonna have to run Win10 with ms Edge browser with an I7 cpu and other stuff. Follow these links:

Are there humans left that run Edge. How do they survive?
 
I use Linux (Centos because I have some custom applications that need the reliable Linux thread multicore parallelism and memory band width). I trade with TWS for Linux with no problem (need to install Oracle Java). Wine is obsolete. Best way to run Windows is with the Virtualbox VM program (you may need to buy a Windows license - I think Microsoft only sells Windows 10). I do not like running Windows. For now I need it for Schwab Street Smart.

Does anyone know how to run Street Smart edge under Linux? There is both a Linux Citrix client and Street Smart edge supposedly just uses a browser. When I try Chrome or Firefox on Linux, Street Smart says those are missing something (the right Java?).

Use wine for linux so you can install the Street Edge Desktop platform
