Thoughts?
You really should be fine. I haven't used Windows in about 8 years, and the number of times there's something I can't access due to incompatibility is miniscule. Maybe a couple of times a year there's an .exe file somewhere that I can't immediately access.

Parallels would address the need to open any windows-proprietary files on the odd occasion where it would be necessary.
