Windows + Apple (Mac) on laptop at the same time?

I would like to buy a Windows laptop and have a kind of shortcut that opens another PC (which Apple has as the operating system).

A kind of emulator, so to speak. However, it should be borne in mind that this second Apple PC should always remain the same (i.e. Not like many other emulator programs that are available for this purpose - where a completely new PC is provided each time it is opened). The whole thing should be as easy as possible to open (eg shortcut / desktop app and done) and not use as much storage space.

Everything is a difficult matter. Apple doesn't want that, of course.

The problem is that macOS can't run natively on a Windows device, not even in a virtual environment. A necessary so-called Hackintosh does not run stable in the long run, because it has to be meticulously adapted to the hardware you are using.

The better way would be to buy a MacBooks Pro with an Intel processor, because it can be used without any restrictions in addition to macOS Windows.

What exactly do you want to use macOS for?

I'm looking for a free version

In general, it is likely to be used for many different projects. Mainly, of course, for mobile work, but also for other small things like a video cut

Video editing doesn't work very well in a virtual environment because it requires complex hardware access.

Will you also use Windows to play?

I would then of course only use the Windows emulator on a Mac. If games work well on Mac (example CSGO)?

It is not a Windows emulator, but a virtual desktop, whose open program appears as a window on macOS. You need a valid Windows license for this.

And yes, Counter Strike: Global Offensive runs at least on Steam on the Mac. I don't know if it can be installed directly without Steam.

So just buy the Windows license for 100 euro or connect one from the other PC and then it works?

Look for a kind of second PC only with a Windows system.

Ma

Who still buys Windows licenses for so much money?

That's not the point here

Right.
