For what it's worth, I've been unable to get past starting anaconda in
qemu-kvm, VirtualBox, and vmware-player.  I hadn't heard or seen anyone
else mention this on the forums recently, so figured it was a just me
thing, as I've only tried on one machine, though there has been at least
one other person on the forums with the same issue.   

One assumes (yeah, yeah, we all know what happens when you assume) that
some of the testers have tried on VMs without having problems, or it
wouldn't have been declared gold.  If that's not the case, as many would
try it first on a VM, I'd be surprised and add my +1 to Steven's
statement.
