GNOME 3 runs fine on a VM including the fallback mode.  GNOME Shell also
runs on a VM if you look at the latest version of VirtualBox.  Work is
being done by Adam Jackson from Red Hat to include support for software
rendering of GNOME Shell or more accurately,  Clutter, the toolkit used
by GNOME Shell.  This is not done yet and it is not clear how efficient
it would be
