I really had problems going this route (Ubuntu host with Windows guest). While the guest ran in VB reasonably well, trying to snapshot a baseline image and generally use VBox diffe…

It's worth pointing out that this style rule itself is optional, which is to say they're not making a recommendation here, just providing an example of what applying the rule would…
