    I am considering purchasing P8 but I am have never run Parallels before so I have some questions.

    1. Can I install a virtualization instance using a Boot Camp partition or vice versa?

    2. What is the battery life drain like on a 2012 MBA?

    Thanks.

    Yes you can. Parallels Desktop can use your existing BootCamp partition: http://kb.parallels.com/112941

    Parallels Desktop 8 has an option to extend the battery life if you use your MBA with no charging often: http://kb.parallels.com/114732
