My issues with Parallels was a slightly poor interface to Linux. Some of the hardware drivers were flaky, and for me, it felt slower. I cannot complain about stability. Neither Parallels nor VMWare Fusion crashed on me... it was the other small things that I didn't like. Then again, Parallels and VMWare Fusion both optimize virtual machines depending on what guest OS you are going to run. It is difficult to compare a Windows and Linux installation on an apple-to-apple basis, even on the same virtual machine type. Cheers, Mark.
