The reasons why i don't run windows on my computers still apply to running
windows on VM's on my computers. Besides, a VM that runs inside a VM is
probably not a good idea for testing the possible problems that this GUI

are, and run the VM in headless mode if there are not, also handle the
actualizations of the VM and so on.
