Check this Virtualization Benchmarking study that compares Parallels vs. Fusion vs. Boot Camp. Very interesting results.
Speaking of virtualization, Parallels just released the final bits of their latest Mac release. Lots of improvements, but coherence alone is worth the free upgrade. I’ve been running the pre-release builds and been very pleased with the improvements.
Parallels preps major update to Windows virtualization software. “Another long awaited feature slated to make its debut is ‘seamless drag-and-drop’ of files and folders between Windows and Max OS X. Along the same lines, a feature called ‘coherency,’ will display Windows applications as if they were Mac ones.”
We all love Parallels around here. Avid Mac users, yet forced to work in a Windows world. Now Parallels announces full support in an upcoming beta for full speed windows gaming, right on your mac desktop. A few days ago they announced 100,000 units sold on that app. And I absolutely love the new seamless mouse effect. Of course they lose points for their blogger account, but what a great product.
