@opensource l am completely new in the world of Linux. I wish to build up a computer having Proxmox, MX Linux and casa os, also retaining windows.

Can you please guide me in the process, how to start building one right from the scratch ?

Why do you believe windows is required to stay connected with the world? Are there specific applications you believe can only run on windows or for which you believe there is no alternative?

Just in case, you can have a look at https://alternativeto.net/ , input your windows application and find opensource alternatives that run on Linux. You can make a list and double check with the community here.

I ask because there might be a possibility for you to go full Linux. It depends on your requirements.
