Labview can be run on all systems. In fact it would be a step up from running an emulator. It stems from the fact that LabView was originally designed on a Mac.

Umm...FIRST shipped the WINDOWS version of LabVIEW. AFAIK the other OS versions have to be ordered separately and are separate licenses. Those licenses are not cheap.

The problem is that you would be severely limiting your options with such a constraint. There are very little microcontrollers that have open source compilers. I'm all for using LabView if I can be shown it's a good choice for this application. I'm certainly convinced that it's an excellent choice for experimentation and data collection.

I am fairly convinced it is not a good choice for the reasons I outlined in the post you responded to.
It would be fun to experiment, but when all is said and done, I am much happier coding in C.
