Works great, helped me use Windows-only apps for school on my Mac.
Bought on mupromo discount, like it!
Wonderful, it works perfectly and also it is simple.
Since school programma's doesn't excists on MAC, I had to use Parallels.
Though I ain't complaining, it gets the job done... running XP on a MacBook :D
Despues de evaluar varias opciones en virtualización para OSX, me he quedado con Parallels Dektop como principal plataforma, ya que su desempeño y caracteristicas me parecen más que adecuadas por su precio. Como usuario avanzado y desarrollador utilizo aplicaciones que son exclusivas para Windows y es muy comodo poder utilizarlas, lado a lado con las aplicaciones de OSX, sin tener que reiniciar el equipo para utiliar Windows (a travez de BootCamp). Para que no tengas contratiempos procura tener mucha memoria en tu equipo, cuando menos 2GB. También utilizo VMWare Fusion, pero de él hablaré en otro momento.
as a web developer and mac user I need to make sure that the sites I work on look good on IE browsers. Parallels is a great virtualization software package, I can access my Windows partition (and apps) while running Mac OS X.
I like Parallels more than VMware, it runs just better on my Mac. And yeah, I got the upgrade to v.4 for free :P
Such a great tool! Allowed me to completely ditch my windows PC and move completely to the Mac while still having the flexibility on the road to load a Win32 app if I need to.
Great tool to run Windows applications on a Mac platform. Not free, but provides you with all the features you'll possibly need.
I prefer VMWare after using both but Parallels, ignoring the fact that the 3.0 to 4.0 upgrade was so botched, is completely capable virtualization.
Yay at version 4 :)
I use Parallels almost daily for my Windows apps. Admitedly I toy with VMware, but Parallels "simply" put is just that. Simple, and works great.
is okay for running windows the few times I need it
I got windows apps to run and it's a great way to do it on the Mac especially in coherence mode. Change the XP skin to match with Leopard and it blends in perfectly.
So great, I love coherence so much. Kudos to the developers.
