How about this more complete table:

{noformat}
Visual Page Editor supported configurations:


                          Win 64-bit  |  Win 32-bit  | OS X 64-bit  |  OS X 32-bit  |  Linux 64-bit  |  Linux 32-bit 
64bit JBDS + 64bit JDK       *        |     X        |       X      |      X        |       ✓        |       X
32bit JBDS + 32bit JDK       ✓        |     ✓        |       ✓      |      ✓        |       ✓        |       ✓

* - Experimental, unsupported version of XulRunner (and therefore the Visual Page Editor) exists for 64-bit Windows. 
Install it from http://download.jboss.org/jbosstools/updates/integration/kepler/core/xulrunner/

> The Visual Page Editor does not run on 64-bit Windows or Mac. While the source editor does work, visual editing & preview do not. If you require this, run the installer with a 32-bit JDK.

> Making readers believe that we do not run on 64-bit OS.  The real issue is 64-bit JVMs.  A 32-bit JVM on a 64-bit OS is great.
> So, a rewording attempt:
> {quote}
> The Visual Page Editor does not provide visual editing nor preview when run on a 64-bit JVM.  However, it does provide visual editing when used on a 32-bit JVM even on a 64-bit Windows or Mac OS X.
