[QUOTE="John F, post: 649546, member: 27169"] I have XP via Parallels on a Macbook and XP via Fusion on a Mac Mini that runs headless on our office network. Both run very well, however Fusion is useless at finding printers on our network and the procedure for adding a network printer is clumsy and complicated. The latest Parallels update causes a lockup that requires a forced quit to get out. The latest Fusion update supplies a link to a page with a series of downloadable files, none of which is marked clearly as the one you want, so this is one aspect of the Windows environment that has been successfully emulated! <g> Because of the printer problem I am seriously thinking of converting the Mac Mini to Parallels - although all the information out there goes the other way.
