With Virtual Box, you could set up an environment for development on
WinX. They expire after 90 days but setting up the environment is a
matter of 1~2 hours, then by taking a snapshot of the VM you can
rollback to the basic setup easily. That's what I am doing.

We are definitely going to need one... I have a machine at home that
could be used with it, an intel NUC of a couple of years back that's
still waiting to be useful with 16GB of RAM in it, but I have no
license at hand, be it either Win7, Win8 or Win10.
