hehe... there's a wrapper in the barcode reader : the keyboard is 
connected to the barcode, which is connected to the computer.
Thus, you can use any os (some barcodes are on usb or serial port, and 
require a specific driver)
And thus again, if your barcode is dirty and not readable by the reader, 
you can type it with your keyboard :-)
