MYOB on Linux, or MYOB alternative that works on Linux? (aussie.zone)

Asking here instead of a more nerdy community as MYOB is pretty much only used in Australia by the looks.

We've run MYOB for the better part of 20 years and it suits our needs perfectly, with one exception - it doesn't support Linux, and with Windows getting more obnoxious every update I would prefer to swap to Linux full time.

Has anyone locally either got it working properly under Linux (using a VM maybe, like VB headless?), or found an alternative that does work under Linux?

Don't really want something web based like Xero (not to mention Xero is missing way too many features we use a lot anyway) though being AccountRight we're hosting the data file remotely anyway.

Outside of running in a VM, I don;t like your chances.

I found no indication that it can be done, there were a few references from 15+ years ago using WINE but even then there was no way to print anything.
