Is a hardware wallet like the Ledger Nano S basically just a normal security token but tied to a wallet on the blockchain ? Is this basically correct? Or is there more to it?

Private key sits physically inside the chip in the Ledger Nano S device.

Whenever you want to send your crypto, an "unsigned transaction" goes into the device. The private key signs it, then a "signed transaction" comes out and is broadcast to the network. All this happens without the private key ever being exposed to the system.

yeah, you can achieve the same with a secondary offline computer, right? What kind of software do you need for this? Or this this a feature of your wallet?

Almost. It depends on how you transfer your unsigned transaction from your online computer to your offline computer. The chances are ridiculously slim, but there's always a chance that someone could design some malware to piggy back on USB's or whatever specifically looking for air-gapped computers to change transactions.

Hardware wallet is still the best investment you can make if you have investments worth $500+ involved.

an offline computer is enough, but usually much more expensive, and bigger.
And by completely offline you have to make sure it doesn't even have a smart printer connected.
And that it NEVER ever goes online again

would it make any sense to do the crypto stuff in a virtual machine (docker or something)?

Nah, screenshotting/screen recording malware still has a chance to grab sensitive information. And even if your private key is never exposed "to the eye", VM's aren't always bullet proof.

There's a lot of ways that can come close to being as safe as a hardware wallet, but hardware wallet is still the #1 unmatched option.

NO
and please, if you have more than $500 in this, do yourself a favor and just get a ledger or a trezor.
in the future this might mean half a million, you don't want to risk it.
