I do all my development on a local machine. I have yet to find a virtual environment that is faster, with lower latency than a good desktop with multiple screens. Even the best internet connection is slower than a local machine. Most virtual environments are effectively sharing a single hardware resource amongst multiple users. None of that is an advantage in my view.
