Hi,

I also use MonoDevelop on a MacBook with VS running on a virtual machine. No 
issues with the setup to speak of. The VM works so well I use it for 
everything, and only switch back out to the Mac when MonoDevelop work is 
required.
This approach also works fine so far for WP8 development in a Windows 8 VM.

Are you using VMWare Fusion? If so, consider updating or reinstalling VMWare 
Tools. You'll also probably need to do this if you upgrade VMWare.

Subject: Re: [MonoTouch] How is your mono touch setup?

I used to do the VM thing when I needed to do something on Windows, but I found 
that it really caned the RAM and CPU on my MacBook.

Recently I have set up my old desktop to run Windows, and left it on all the 
time. When I want to do dev on the Windows box I just RDP into it.

I use MonoDevelop for 100% of my Mono* development, and only use VS if I 
_really_ have to (e.g. SharePoint work).

I suppose what I am doing is the polar opposite of something like MacInCloud.

Regards,

James
