I can personally vouch for Mountain Lion running well in VMWare. Where it gets hard is when you are running Snow Leopard or earlier, and not for any technological reason—those versions are artificially blocked from running in a virtual machine unless you are running the Server version, due to certain terms in the EULA. Apple seems to have revised the license for Lion and later, though, and those versions generally have no problems running in VMWare (I haven’t tried it in Parallels).
