Well, I don't know if it'll be the base, but arch usually stays pretty
stable. I haven't had major upgrade issues for a long time. You
shouldn't have too much of an issue with this vm, it's setup to work
great in Virtualbox. The only editor I installed was vim though, so
those who don't use that should install their prefered editor.
