I use Lightroom in VirtualBox which seems to work ok for me

(I don't really do that much fiddling with the photos though).

The photos are actually stored on my Linux filesystem and provided to Windows via VirtualBox's file sharing feature.

And then I just rsync the photos to a backup computer.

How's performance on that, have you compared with plain Windows or wine?

I think I tried and failed to get lightroom to run in wine quite a while ago. Maybe the situation with that has improved now? I haven't used it on plain Windows I'm afraid.

I don't do anything that intensive though, just brightening images and tagging which seems to work fine for me.
