I'm using virtualbox 2.1.4 on Mac OS X Leopard; running AVR Studio  
with no issues.

I've used a JTAG mkII clone from Propox and a JTAGICE MKII from AVR.  
No problems to report.

I also use some other Windows-only apps, like the http://www.pctestinstruments.com/ 
 logic analyzer just fine.

Before using Virtualbox I used Parallels, but I dumped it after the  
upgrade from 3 to 4, which was both ridiculously priced and buggy  
where it mattered to me, namely USB support. To this day Linux under  
Parallels cannot use any USB mass storage like an USB stick. This is a  
known bug since almost a year, and was NOT fixed in the 3->4 upgrade  
for $79 (original price was around $50). But they threw in a useless  
moonlight animation for suspend/resume and run marketing surveys with  
idiotic questions - thanks and goodbye.

I've also tried VMware, but Virtualbox is both free and stable - good  
enough for me running my few apps
