Yes, I used to have a VM of Windows, at one point they were trying to attract devs and sold a VM licence for $25. But it stopped working when I changed computers (I think that was outside the terms) and now a legitimate VM licence is much more unless you go for a dodgy OEM key. Coincidentally I just tried again today and the scanning story on Ubuntu has improved a bit . Setup is still a bitch but once it's there it's almost as productive as scanning on windows.
