Does anyone run Petrel in a VM? Parallels Workstation Extreme looks like it would do the trick, but I'm wondering if the new RemoteFX in Windows Server's Hyper-V would work?
Feel free to make this a Community Wiki post.
We are actually using internally Hyper-V to install Petrel on different operation systems. So to answer your question : yes it works.
In other words, there is nothing in Petrel that would stop you from using virtual machine boxes.
