Install Windows 10 on Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition (Ubuntu)
I have some experience with linux command line and figure it's time to immerse myself. I am purchasing an XPS developer edition (Ubuntu Linux 16.04 LTS installed) with 256gb hard drive and 8gb RAM. I still need Windows for certain programs, so I am wondering the best way to implement that? Would it be best to run it through a virtual machine? I can obtain a copy of windows 10 through my university. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Would it be best to run it through a virtual machine?
That would be my method: keep windows sandboxed and make backups of your VMs. Those backups as easy to make and easy to automate. Plus a copy of the VM and you have 2 Windows.
When you run into problems (cryptolocker, virus, etc) just restore a clean backup.
256Gb is a SSD I would assume? If not... try to replace it with an SSD.
