For an end-user I agree completely.

As a plug-in developer, I find VM's a life saver ... due to the way Eclipse manages plug-in's it's very hard to actually uninstall one ... so being able to revert a VM to a previous snapshot (before a plug-in was installed) saves me untold hours of work. But, as I said, that's ONLY because I'm a plug-in developer.
