If you need the virtual machine to talk to a physical device (like
via USB), I have heard that virtualbox is better at that than most
other packages (though I have never tried it myself - I have tried
connecting a USB printer to a KVM virtual machine just for grins, and
it made the windows KVM bluescreen, so that didn't work at all).
