So you buy something on the web, software, coffee beans, whatever. Now what
happens to the software since you can't install it except in the VM? What
happens to your receipt for the coffee beans since you can't save it
anywhere but within the VM? How do you get your banking records from one
side of the VM to the other so you can pay bills online?
If you use your CC in the VM, isn't your CC information still at risk since
everything in the VM is still hackable?
