All the time.  I use it on both Windows and Linux hosts, and using both 
Windows and Linux guest OS's.

In fact, I even share the same Linux guest OS, sometimes running it on a 
Windows host, and sometimes on a Linux one.  (That doesn't work for 
Windows guests, though, as Win doesn't take kindly to the underlying 
hardware changing massively from under it.)

Vbox is awesome!  Great way to kick the tires on a new distro, or to 
test out KDE 4, etc.
