Its required because your supposed to not be running *very* much else while driving, for safety, so the laptop doesn't lag behind and start giving the robot weird directions (I've seen this happen, running into yourself with a lunacy robot isn't fun.).

As to the first question, I believe Windows XP and 7 are supported, we've ran it on Vista, but we're had some communication problems at times and I'm not sure it'd be your best bet support-wise.
