+1 for running dev environments in virtual machines.

I tend to run them headless (Shift-Click in VirtualBox) mapping my dev folder using samba (Command-K in Finder maps to a samba drive) and ssh into the VM's CLI using iTerm.

It's a great way to retain environments at the end of projects.

Would love to hear your thoughts after a month? The good and bad obviously...
