Sufficient for virtualization, but check performance needs.

Check if your device can support virtualization by testing performance. Running Ubuntu or Arch for experiments like DE/WM tuning is feasible, but ensure it meets your needs.

A virtual machine functions similarly to having two separate Windows environments running simultaneously.

I was just learning about virtual machines but haven’t come across them before.

It's been around forever. Just need to keep up with the slang.

You should consider another setup. The Asus Vivobook 15 with Ryzen 5 3500U and 8GB RAM may struggle with running an Android emulator smoothly. A better configuration would prioritize more RAM and a faster processor for development tasks.

I believe having more RAM improves performance. I’m not very experienced with this topic. Please create a separate discussion about laptop purchases.
