All the VM lovers.

Post what software you use to run your vm.

The use of your vm.

The OS of your Vm.

And a screenshot of your vm inside host.

Let me start it.

I use virtual box on my Win10 machine.

I am running a webserver on it.

The vm OS is Ubuntu.

Ubuntu Server 12.04 guest on Win 10 host using VBox in headless mode, connected via SSH using Cmder. I should be using vagrant but I think it is just another unnecessary layer of abstraction.

Used to replicate production server environments for WordPress sites I build and manage. Running Nginx 1.8.0, HHVM 3.9.1, PHP-FPM, MariDB 10, postfix, Redis, Opcache, memcache, FastCGI cache, ngx-pagespeed. Plus playing around with Meteor, NodeJS, npm, Rails, etc, etc.

I use VM, but mostly Ubuntu and Debian servers which I use for testing web based applications such as xtuple, OpenBravo and other ERP/CRM/project management applications. I use Turnkey LAMP (Debian based) or Ubuntu server to use as the base server. I only access them via SSH, so screenshots not very exciting. Sorry.

VirtualBox Headless running on CentOS 6.7 Host administered with VBoxManage command-line, SSH. VM Guests are accessible via RDP (rdesktop, remmina) on Ubuntu Desktop.
VM's are a mix of Windows, Linux and BSD server used in production, testing and education.

Trying to get graphics performance up. Will end up without quite a lot of features. A sample of what a session is like now.

Errata: Sorry. Was typing 3/4 asleep. Decided to game late at night and Urban Terror is quite addictive for me. ATI on linux is a headache! Fglrx outperforms free software radeon driver only in power conservation and 3D. Otherwise, for all the nice stuff, always go open source.
