[QUOTE="bryank89, post: 406543, member: 32037"] I've seen in several threads mention that in order to run both parallels and BootCamp requires two separate installations, but on Parallels website (more specifically in [URL="http://www.parallels.com/files/upload/pdf/Parallels_Desktop_for_Mac_Datasheet_05-22-07.pdf"]this[/URL] pdf file on page 2 it mentions the ability to boot the windows 32 bit partition created with BootCamp directly in the parallels desktop. To me this means one would have the ability to boot either OS on startup and allow for parallels virtual machine functionality from within OSX. Am I missing something? Some one please set me straight on the possibility of using both BootCamp and parallels from a single Windows XP install. Confused, Bryan on a side note...I understand this perhaps would fit better on the software board but this board seems more active, and I'm still in the decision making process of whether or not to switch.
