  Not too cumbersome. Invest a few bucks in a KVM. I did this a few  months 
ago and it's has really improved productivity around here. I personally 
like having all my eggs in one basket for development, but....

   The extra dollars for a dedicated dev box seem minor when compared to 
the wasted hours and frustration.
   Does not have to be a powerhouse, just the bare minimum to do the job.

Get it working and then freeze it. Make a disk image, and when things start 
getting flaky restore the snapshot and reset to a known condition.
