if it matters, Parallels is a Russian company and VMWare is a USA company. VMWare uses Indian programmer in India (I think), whereas SWSoft uses Russian programmers in, you guessed it, Russia. If this is a rick or factor in your decision, you will need to decide.

Personally, I find VMWare more stable and less prone to hose my Windows install, especially bootcamp.

I have been using Parallels all year, an old version 1.something binary that has worked fine for me, no problems at all. Now I have upgraded to Leopard I find that it still works fine on my MacBook Pro but blow up instantly on my MacMini I have at home. I am so behind the curve on versions I am not too surprised.

However, a good friend is using Fusion - after using Parallels - and he is gung-ho on the superiority of it.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the subject?

And - I cannot find an answer to this one - does anyone know if the Fusion license allows me to have a copy on my desktop machine and on my laptop? I use one or the other at a time, never both, and no one else does - dare not - touch any of my Macs...

Thanks - Lawrence
