The virtualized windows guest is claiming it only provides opengl 1.1....possibly the default GDI driver is being used?

Thank you for reminding that, I think you're right. Microsoft GDI driver is very poor and buggy, it emulates OpenGL through Direct3D and only supports OpenGL 1.1. As far as I know, no OpenGL-based CAD software intends to support this crap, some CAD applications use a software renderer as a fallback instead of relying on this kind of driver.

Java3D is a retained mode scenegraph, it requires decent support of vertex arrays which is the case of all known Java scenegraphs including Ardor3D, Xith3D, 3DzzD, JMonkeyEngine, Aviatrix3D, JPCT, ...
