I could run VirtualBox full screen allright but the actual guest
screen was in 4:3 ratio and I couldn't get 16:9 ratio.
So there were 2 large black bars on either side.

However that was some time ago (F16 had just come out).
I have not tried VB recently.

I have just installed Ubuntu 13.04 (alpha, daily build) in F18
using KVM and 'virt-manager' and now I can get 16:9 fullscreen
with KVM.

But it performs a bit slow and shaky. I don't know if this is
due to virtualization or the alpha status of Ubuntu 13.04 or both.

Performance wise I would say that dual boot is preferable.
