Better if you use VirtualBox (http://virtualbox.org/) Linux works
great on it. But for WinForms 'development' I would use Windows and
VisualStudio and then I would test the result in Linux. The WinForms
designer in VisualStudio is really solid and has tons of features.
There is not a released WinForms designer for mono (as far as I know).
