Actually I could not make it run - on My Mac I have a VirtualBox with an XP -- Atmel Studio 6 crashes on it. I also happen to have a Bootcamp with a Win 7 on it, the 20GB is not quite enough to fit the OS and the Atmel Studio 6 together. I mean 20 GB ! Crazy stuff, but I guess for normal people who use PC with 1TB disk, it should not be a big deal.
