After going through some rocky times with VBox 3.2.4, I'm gunshy to start messing with my mostly working VBox 3.1.8 that I downgraded to.
I'm running Windows XP as a guest to do Visual Studio development with a unibody 15" MBP.
Is 3.2.6 working well for most people?
Thanks!

Re: Consensus on VBox 3.2.6
VBox 3.2.6 works for most people. VBox 3.2.8 fixed some small bugs. There is a known problem with disabling the host cache for the virtual disk drive if the disk image is located on an ext4 partition or an xfs partition. This is a Linux kernel bug which will be fixed soon. The suggested workaround is to enable the host cache (VM settings). Apart from this, VBox 3.2.6 / 3.2.8 should be as stable as VBox 3.1.8.
