we are mixing apples with oranges here. getting vm to run under linux
has nothing to do with voiceover and safari.
Jaws is over crowded with complexity, it robs us of the natural ook
and feel of the browser and makes a lot of mistakes in doing so. I
find it takes no greater number of keystrokes to do most things with
voiceover. I don't know what the "conventional wisdom" means here but
I have been using voiceover for 5 years now and am so glad I don't
have to be forced to turn on forms mode or turn off the virtual mode
just to use the web.

My ultimate goal is to be jaws free. And I'm typing this on a Mac
mini. But my impression is that jaws and Windows is still
significantly ahead of Mac OS and voiceover. It takes too many
keystrokes to get things done vya voiceover. I even asked about this
on the voiceover list last summer and the conventional wisdom is that
voiceover isn't quite up to jaws level yet.
I've been trying to get Windows to run in a virtual machine under
linux. I don't think there is any way I'd have been able to get that
done without jaws.

I find safari with voice over superior to jaws.

Windows still has quite a few advantages as a user interface over
linux espeically for the blind. Windows and jaws is better than Max
OS and VoiceOver too. Go on the voiceOver email list and even they
will admit that. Note that I'm sending this from a Mac mini.
Other reasons to want to run Windows would include the possibility
that you need to use some software that is available only for
Windows and the possibility that you have to support Windows.
I just got Windows running in a virtual machine via vmware server2.
But I'll post another message about that.

Really, that's as bad as running windows on the mac! In both cases
why accept the security problems and waste the disk space?

The simple answer is no. There are ways, but you'd better do your
reading before asking such things because the ways that are there
are inaccessible.
And, why would you want to run windows under linux in the first
place?
