    Hey now..just got running with Parallels 4.0 and loving it.

    1 "easy" question (they're never easy...): is it possible to use the same Virtual Machine that I have set up in one Profile while in a different person's Profile?

    For example, I have set up Windows XP under my son's iMac Profile...but when I go into my own personal iMac Profile, I cannot seem to access Windows XP. Do I need to re-load Windows in every Profile?

    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you for your feedback.
    Here is a special Knowledgebase article, which explains how to share the same machine between several Mac users:

    Thanks for the speedy reply. I TRULY appreciate it!
    fwiw, I did do a KB search..but, got frustrated with the fact I didn't have the correct search paramaters! ( the sue of Mac users v. Mac profiles)

    thanks again, and--gobble gobble :)
