I've done so in the past, but it becomes cumbersome to manage shared folders. The ability to have everything shared and your driver naturally working under /mnt/ - essentially replacing cmd with bash and its tools - is a big deal for me. Using editing/managing/design tools in Windows build with a build/deploy system in bash, and no middle man... that'd be the day.

You don't use shared folders with your linux VM, you ssh to it, and use tmux/(vim|emacs) ;)
