I would go with VMware. I don't know if Parallels is any different these days but when I used it, it will not launch if you have more than one Windows partition. Even external Fat32 usb drives would screw it up. Plus VMware has all those amazing pre-built appliances you can try out for free. That's how I test drove Joomla 1.5 before I installed it. ::M::

Yah, i think they skimped on screen quality in the last round of imac updates specifically on the 20" imac. Not a very smart move.

I am sure you'll have to pull her arm Convincing her to go from the 20" to the 24" won't be a problem, the extra $$ may be though, but that's the price of getting what you need! Cheers James my friend! |

Wow, glad there are so many Mac people in here. I am a total Mac Addict and have owned many Apple products (Remember the Apple Lisa?)  Anyway, I am getting ready to purchase a new MacBook Pro and also would like opinions on wether to go with Parallels or VMware Fusion. |

The best thing is to download a trial of each and see how which one you prefer  I personally prefer the Parallels interface and as I only use it for Internet Explore testing and use a gaming client, its *lack of robust features* compared to VMware aren't a major problem. |

You misunderstood, it was a gaming client, not a game itself. Basically, its a tunneling software allowing me to run my Xbox console through the internet as if it were LAN. I dislike playing games on my computer, compared to my Xbox, Halo3 anyone When I do play games on my computer, there are strategy and I prefer non-full screen mode for that. |

Parallels works for what I use Windows for. Bootcamp is cool but requires valuable harddrive space I didn't want to give up. It also requires shutting down and if I use Windows, I need dual access to both Operating Systems.
