Since you're already using bootcamp, you're more than half way there. Parallels can boot from your bootcamp partition. Yay! Roger Eller <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > I have been using BootCamp, but having to reboot completely tends to > stop me using it. I would prefer a solution that allowed me to run

Hi Sarah! Hope you're doing well. As you know, I'm not much of a Mac user, but I find the Bootcamp/Parallels combo works great for me. There are times when I only want the Mac to be a PC, and it does that with Bootcamp. Other times (editing Rev stuff), I like having both. The only problem I've had

Hello. As far as windows/mac integration goes, Parallels and VMWare are equivalent (I know that VMWare supports better 3D rendering, however Parallels is bound to catch up). The best selling points for VMWare boil down to the years of experience in VM's that VMWare has, the more graceful

According to the recent (October) issue of Macworld (pg. 84), "the most significant difference right now [between Parallels and Fusion] is that Fusion offers clipboard integration so that it is easier to cut and paste between [operating systems.]" Jim ___

Hi Luis, Sarah, Parallels is really much more practical than Bootcamp, which requires a restart. On the other hand, Bootcamp allows you to choose from more than 2 operating systems: which makes Bootcamp interesting again. Best reg

Sarah, I have both VMWare Fusion and Parallels 3.0. I was a heavy parallels user but when I begun my GSoC work, Haiku would not run under parallels, so I migrated to VMWare Fusion. I bought both during their beta period so I paid less than 100 USD for both products. Both are very very good. I feel
