Lately there have been many reports of folks not being able to get the 
"latest" Unix VM to work. I just wanted to point out that you all 
should be using the 3.4 VM. It goes fine with a 3.5 image (which was 
only a bug fix release anyway) and should run all the latest and 
greatest stuff (3.6-something) just fine. It even runs Croquet.

Here it is straight from the Ian's mouth:
