  For me, no, because I enjoy using flash to play games and look at art
projects.  One can use a VM for gaming if they really want to, but I
choose not to.  The trade-offs for me are performance, hassle, and the
fact that virtualbox won't run on my machine. 

  It's probably a bit off-topic, but in the next couple of months I plan
to get a dedicated Windows machine that is used only for testing and
gaming.  Lots of games have questionable components (flash-based and
otherwise).  Getting another machine the ultimate sandbox.  But you've
got to weigh cost, necessity, and (frankly) relative interest.  If I
didn't *also* need one for Windows development, I wouldn't bother with it.

best,
Griffin
