A Note on Virtual Machines
- VMWare products are fully supported and we test extensively on this platform.
- Microsoft Virtual PC and Virtual Server should work, but we rarely test on this platform.
- Parallels for the Macintosh may work, but we do not test with it, and cannot support it.
- WINE for Linux may support BarTender, but will not work with Windows drivers. We cannot support it or recommend it for use in a production environment.
