    I notice that in my dual core intel duo core 2, Parallels is only using a single core. I wonder if I am limited to a single core and whether this is changed in v. 8. If I am not limited to a single core, is it a bad idea to use both cores in a 2 core machine? I also wonder if the memory loss issue is improved at all in v. 8. I only have 6 gigs of memory and it seems that parallels tends to suck up ram if used for a while.
