Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

I haven’t tried VirtualBox because I’ve read it has issues with USB. Parallels works fine with Windows XP SP3. I’ve got Windows 7 loaded now and some day in the near  future I will be trying E-Loader on it. Perhaps someone else can comment whether E-Loader is working properly in Windows 7?
