Node.js dev environments for Windows fans

The goal was to

- decrease the difference between DEV and PROD (heroku) and thus devOps to maintain it

- we have laptops with Windows and would like to stay there.. anyway code/run app in heroku-like env

	Env	Usage	Comments
.	Desktop Ubuntu	just code / run / setup app in ubuntu	would be nice but we'd like to stay on windows
.	Windows + VB with Ubuntu desktop	code in Sublime in Ubuntu, run / setup app in Ubuntu	appeared to be a bit slow - but very obvious Env )
.	Windows + VB with Ubuntu server + shared folder	code in Sublime in Windows, but run app in Ubuntu via shared folder	failed due to npm problems with cross-OS shared folders
.	Windows + VB with Ubuntu server + cloud9	code in browser (cloud9 ide) in Windows, and it runs the app in Ubuntu (native env)	also u can share this clould9 ide to let you work from home using your work and remote machines
.	Windows + VB with Ubuntu server + putty + vim	code in vim via putty (Windows) connecting to Ubuntu with app	hardcore but a reasonable one
.	PROD -> Joyent SmartOS + dtrace	move PROD to smartOs, debug it without affecting its work	geeky hardcore way :)

Conclusion - it's not hard to stay on Windows and work in heroku-like env

Even if OS changes for daily usage (not only work) should be fun :)
