I know that fusion and parallels are different. i have both, and couldn't get parallels to work very well, and so opted for fusion. bit of a shame as i wasted however much parallels cost only to find out that it didn't work for me. i could get it to run with wineyes, but it was very slow and unresponsive. not sure about what could be different about my macbook pro though except that it's quite old in relation to all the newer and faster ones that are available now. i also updated the bootcamp to the final release one that came with leopard. just to be safe, i used system access to guide me through the installation, which pretty much did its thing without any hitches, and surprisingly, jaws didn't seem to complain either. hope this was useful to someone.
