I use Parallels, and it does everything that the company advertises. I am completely satisfied with it. Having been a PC and Windows person since the their beginnings, I have many Winows apps that I like being able to continue to use. However, I usually don't access the WWW on the Windows partition for security reason. Stan Kossen I have a MacPro with Tiger and Win XP on them.

I use Parallels to test websites in 98 & XP on a 2GHz MacBook across 2 monitors. Laptop's monitor for OS X and the other for the 'guest' os. Seeing a cursor change from white Windows to black Mac when you move your mouse between monitors is extraordinary when you see it first time. A godsend for web developers.

There's never been an easier way to test software without destroying your primary operating system's stability. Think of how many times you wish you could press a 'reverse' button on your computer. Plus, there's no easier way to try new Linux distributions - see what all the fuss is about. Run Windows in OS X, run Linux in Windows, but the best way to do either is with <a href="http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/17081/rn_a32755/">VMware</a> and/or <a href="http://send.onenetworkdirect.net/z/13766/rn_a32755/">Parallels</a>. chris@lockergnome.com (Chris Pirillo) Partner Mon, 25 Feb 2008 06:30:00 GMT http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/02/19/parallels-or-vmware/ http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/02/19/parallels-or-vmware/ Screen Capture for Multi-taskers <a href="http://www.techsmith.com/featured/2008/snagit/v9launch/?cmp=LockS01">SnagIt</a> 9 works like you work!
