I plan on using both... have a MBP on the way which I want to use for some dev work on settop boxes (part of my thesis on IPTV) . The dev tools that I need are on windows and som…

Using both here. Parallels for Visual Studio development and BootCamp for games. I've shut down my PC for good ;-) I've had no problems with Parallels, and the performance isn't…

I paid the early price for Parallels. Still haven't been able to get it to boot any of three different versions of Windows. Requests for help have not been answered. I figure I …

That sounds odd...why don't you post some details and we may be able to help. Many of us here are running XP without a hitch (SP2, anyway) and I also run Ubuntu 5.x without any pro…

Glad this thread is here. I am on the verge of an upgrade: MBP vs. MacPro if it comes out in August. My biggest PC need is for work. I need to use a VPN connection to log in to…

I'll put my vote in for Parallels... The thing I do not like about BootCamp is that you can only use Win XP Full Version with it. Not only is that limiting (primarily because in…

Thanks for the input. I did some reading- looks like 1920x1200 resolution is not yet supported in parallels, but it will be soon. My biggest fear is that I will be running parall…

Cadaver, aren't you a radiologist? Are you using parallels or bootcamp to get into your hospital? I have to VPN into mine, and I've read that there are some issues with VPN and p…

I hear that using Parallels brings your videocard memory down to 8 megs under a different OS. So I would use Boot Camp if I had an Intel Mac.

We use Cisco VPN to get into Clinical Desktop. ClinDesk uses a plugin for Ultravisual. Ever heard of these apps?

I use the SonicWall Global Client and it works awesome in parallels.

This may sound silly, but i searched and the concensus is that Parallels and Boot Camp both can't co-exist on the same machine? Or can they? I tried installing Parallels and it jus…

Quote: Originally Posted by DeathMan Is this likely to happen? If so, I'd buy Parallels in a second. That, along with Vista support, are due with the next full release.... …

I use both. Boot Camp can do things that Parallels can't, plus it's faster since it uses both cores on the Core Duo models. Parallel's USB support isn't complete yet, for example…

So just a couple of days ago, I'm loading songs and getting rid of some old stuff - everything's fine - FAT32 formatted, mounts and interfaces with both my mac and peecee's. Then a…

So I've had my black MB for about 3 days. Used it about 4 hours a night. Looking at the trackpad in the right light, there's already sings of wear - that "shiny" look that you see …

Hi, This was a huge issue for me when I was looking at the macbooks at the apple store. I understood that many people were probably playing around with them, bit it was just a co…

Clean it with Mr. Clean Magic Earaser...it'll take it right off...trust me.

Ben - you're so upset, then stop reading this forum. Anyway, it's wear, not grease, sweat, stains, water, oil, etc. I have a right to complain as it's just like a new car's paint …
