> OS X and the Apple hardware work together and never, ever, ever crash, using a Hackintosh is an exercise in frustration.

Well all I can say that there are no crashes and no causes for frustration on my end.

"It just works" for me is - I don't have to think about it, it does not get in a way.

As a bonus: configuration of the VM can be put in a VCS, whole virtual disk can be snapshotted and reverted if needed.
