  How often have I crashed a whole system while testing software on it? Not very often, but it really sucks when it happens. But it's quite common that I want to see how some server code runs on the exact same kernel as will be used in production. This is a pain if that kernel is also running your IDE.

    The corollary to this is corrupting your VM on a crash. For whatever inane reason, my Mac reboots itself every few days. I grew tired of corrupting my VM and having to rollback to a snapshot, losing whatever I had in there since the last snapshot. So, I gave up on that and just develop on the Mac natively.
