Hi guys,

Tried Parallels and like it a lot!

The only good reason I have to choose Bootcamp over Parallel is because when I boot into Windows XP with Bootcamp I can play Call Of Duty 2.

Is there any chance that soon with Parallels I'll be able to play Call Of Duty 2 as fast as Bootcamp allows?

Thanks for the tip! I may have to go buy a copy.

I guess I should broaden my question -- is there any effort ongoing to get Parallels to work with graphics intensive Windows games?

Just wondering, looks like I'll be buying Parallels anyway. Thanks,
