Windows 10 Insider Preview Fast Build 19587.1000 - March 18 Insider

Having VMs in 4 different distros and updating the host as well and updating the VMs as well is definitely challenging but that's where the fun is. If I screw up I don't have anyone to blame and I can count on my wife for hardware support if necessary - thankfully I can stay away from her Windows desktop. Updating openSUSE now and normal and shared VMs from 19577 to this build using WU. Then I need to return GRUB to get my Ubuntu host up to kernel 5.6 rc6 - they finally fixed their compile problem.

cheers,
