Easy to transfer .m/.x files into and out of. I really don't see the point of setting up and emulating an entire virtual machine of several hundred megabytes, when I can easily use DosBoxStars.
If you prefer the entire virtual machine route, I'd like to hear your reasoning why.
I run linux on my computer, so I don't need to mess with this. I just found it amusing that where normally people use Windows as a gaming platform (even if they run linux or mac for work) there is now at least one game that is easier to run on linux 
More power to you! Stars! AutoHost uses Wine to generate turns, all command-line.
