    Dear all,

    I have downloaded the trial version of Parallel Desktop for Mac 4.0.3846 2 weeks ago and install windows 2000 into it. The trial version has ended today and I would like to buy a full version in order to continue using. But there is a newer version of Parallel Desktop released. So, I would like to ask:
    1. Should I buy the new version of Parallel Desktop 5 and upgrade the current version? Will it cause any trouble to my Windows2000 system or even need to reinstall Win200?
    2. Or should I buy the older version of Parallel Desktop 4 and save much the time in upgrading? (But seems that there is only 5.0 for sale now...)
    3. What if I would like to extend the trial period for my current copy? Should I upgrade to 5.0 first and re-ask for a trial key?

    Really thanks alot in answering my question.

    UPGRADING TO n°5

    Before upgrading from #4 to #5 you need to save your WM's and only after this job you can upgrade to #5. Thereafter you must restore your backup of the WM's.
