Just FYI: I've started with virtual machines, but figured out it is
(sometimes, maybe my fault) a bit of pain to coherently setup and also
that not all hardware have support for KVM - for example my netbook with
Atom N455, which I use half the time, does not support VT and they've
killed support for KQEMU in QEMU recently...

Anyway, good luck with LDD4!

Thanks,
