 Save your money, get VMWARE FUSION instead! November 11, 2008

I purchased Parallel 3.0 for mac, I installed and was never able to use it once (I must premise that I am not a novice with regard of both macs and PCs). I repacked the install disk and useless manuals back inside the product's box and it's all sitting unused. Parallels it's not a tool, it's a STOOL! I bought VMWARE fusion, I installed it, and in about 1/2 hour I had WINXP up and running on a virtual machine! By the way the 1/2 hour includes the time it took to install WINXP. In conclusion Parallels just stinks, save your money and purchase VMWARE fusion for mac.
 Requires Windows!!! October 14, 2008

Please understand that this product requires you to also purchase Microsoft Windows for it to work, making the whole idea of running Windows programs on your Mac much more expensive.
Product 5 Stars Help 0 Stars. October 4, 2008
THis is a good product and it works as advertised. However you are on your own if you need help. Support is non existent. I had a question and needed some help with the initial install. Two weeks later I received an email saying my help request had been assigned a support number and to use that number in all future correspondence for assistance.
 Great deal... September 29, 2008

Parallels has served me well so far. I don't have to reboot my Mac everytime I need to switch from Mac OS to Windows XP, and vice versa. I haven't had major problems so far. The only slight glitch I found with it is that it consumes memory more than what I expected.
 Great Product, perfect solution September 24, 2008

I recently purchased an iMac 24" with 4GB RAM to replace my Windows home computer. However, there were three programs I use regularly that had no MAC equivalent: Quicken 2009 Premium, Wordsearch 8, and Legacy 7. I installed Parallels, a new (full) copy of Windows XP, got all the updates, and installed the aforementioned three programs as well as Norton AV 2009, Word, Excel, and Outlook. Parallels works flawlessly. In three weeks of use, I have never had a problem. I can save files to a USB hard drive connected to my Mac and print from a network printer connected to my Time Capsule backup storage device. I highly, highly recommend this program.
