[QUOTE="kolevich, post: 617899, member: 49432"] Thanks. Glad to join your nice company! :Smirk: Well, after I bought my first Mac 3 months ago I was choosing Virtualisation soft for about 1 month.. I was choosing between VMWare Fusion and Parallels Desktop. I spend a lot of my time in other forums gathering other users' reports to find the answer which app is the best.. I failed to find the answer because there are such different points of view.. And there is no dominating point of view as well. There are debates only. So my choice was a random choice. And I think I haven't mistaken. By the way, I've made my own conclusion that Parallels and Fusion are similar to Mercedes and BMW.. :) One cannot be objectively better than another. :) Moreover everything is individual.. I would say that I like Parallels Desktop. Easy to install, easy to use, nice interface. I like its Virtual Machine Management Tools. I find them very convenient. It doesn't drag my system and that's very important to me. So the speed is perfect. Thru PD I run such Windows-only soft as IE7, AutoCad, some Office soft that I get used to, Photoshop and so on.. I even tried to play some PC-games in PD. But of course these games are not ones with high system requirements. Parallels will fail to run them. I use Boot Camp for gaming. I think this one is the best for gaming. Surely this report is a little bit narrowed and subjective because I have nothing to compare with. But Parallels fully satisfies me and I haven't any issues that make me think about getting another soft that runs Windows on MAC. :Smirk: [/QUOTE]
