[QUOTE="D R, post: 462927, member: 28730"] Parallels is just another program that allows you to run another OS, be it Windows or Linux in a virtual environment. You will not need to reboot to run the OS of your choice. So, for example, boot up your Mac into OSX, start parallels and then you can load the OS you choose. It will start and run inside of OSX. You do need the Windows disk. You need to install Windows inside the virtual environment. Boot camp requires you to reboot the Mac and choose the OS to run. I hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
