The only downsides are:
- Need to re-run the vmware setup everytime there is kernel patch on
the host. Won't be a problem most of the time, only VM downtime.
Virtualbox seems not affected by kernel patch.
- If somehow we want to move the VM to another host, we must make sure
the virtualization feature in the BIOS of the host is similar.
