I've used Parallels, VMWare Fusion and Virtual Box, in that order, now, I use only virtual box even as I've paid for Fusion 1.0 and Parallels from 1.0 to 3.0. One good thing I like in virtualbox is that I have it on my mac and on my linux machines, so I can test things on my macbook or fat pc

I use Virtual Box, its free and works perfectly. But I would never dream of not testing an app on a real physical machine, if I were a professional developing for that platform. Peter -- View this message in context: http://n4.nabble.com/OT-Parallels-or-VMWare-Fusion-tp1560956p1562421
