Define 'better'. I use Parallels and also a single installation, because
problems could be coming from the virtual machine and not from the Beta,
or problems could NOT arise on the cirtual machine, while they do arise on
your standard machine.
So it depends on what you want to test. If you want to test if it works on
VMware, or if you just want to test standard software, a virtual manager
is just fine. If you want to look at hardware recognision and such, best
do a install on your machine so it runs really on that machine. Just so
you are sure that problems are not caused by/due to the virtual manager.
