In transitioning to my iMac, I thought I would leave behind MS Money to run on my wife's new Thinkpad with Windows Vista. Well, it appears that MS Money doesn't like to run on Vista, as I found out this evening while doing an install of Money 2007. Incredible as it may seem, Microsoft can't even get its own application products to work seamlessly with Vista. And I'm not alone:

Since I want to continue using Money, I thought I'd install XP on my iMac using Parallels. But before I embarked on this experiment, I would like to get positive feedback from folks who have actually gone this route. Until then, I'm stuck having two separate systems occupying my desk area.
