    Upgrades and rebates.. SHESH!

    1st, major software releases cost money. But if you bought in late March, as in two months ago they should cut some slack. But if you bought Norton 2006 in November, I doubt they'd five you the 2007 out in January for free. Sure you'd get updates for your version, but not the new release...

    Parallels 3.0

    If the list of games is correct, some of them, such as the Alien Arena 2007 are Direct X 9 games, which would mean that it's quite likely Aero will be supported, and further that SWsoft Parallels 3.0 will be more advanced in this aspect than VMware's Fusion, which is currently in beta, but only...

    Boot Camp Vista, anyone?

    I think he was saying that he uses Vista (separate installs, albeit with the same license) in both Parallels and Boot Camp. Nick

    VMWare Fusion Beta 3 out

    Boot Camp Partition and Vista? Okay, since Fusion Beta 3 now allows using boot camp partition like parallels, can anyone with Vista installed on Boot Camp confirm if Fusion works with it, or is that feature limited to XP like parallels? Nick

    Bootcamp 1.2

    My question is... For those of us using the boot camp partition to use parallels, are there any issues to report? Has anyone with that type of setup installed the new driver set on windows xp? And if so, were you able to use parallels okay in OS X after the installation? And finally, after...

    Boot Camp Vista, anyone?

    I third this. I'm actually upset that Parallels supports Vista, but not through Boot Camp. Though I can see an good argument that Apple doesn't even technically support Vista through Boot Camp, so why should parallels. However, if I were parallels I'd be working diligently on that option as it's...

    Vista 'Aero' working in Parallels (kind of)

    True You're right. Though, I've found that Vista is slower than XP. It's quite annoying really. As of now, in my opinion Vista is a dog in parallels, and ugly without 'aero'. So I went back to XP, but wanted that 'aero' look and feel as I feel XP's 'luna' is dated. I'm not saying it's a 100%...

    Vista 'Aero' working in Parallels (kind of)

    http://img207.imageshack.us/img207/530/picture1lb5.jpg You should check out the image (Above). There is a tool out that I've being using for many months called Vista Transformation Pack. Recently the final version of it was released, and it effectively makes your Windows XP installation as...

    Parallels Desktop for Mac build 3170 RC3 is available for download.

    iSight? Documentation says it works, and you all say it works, however I cannot get it to run in Windows XP SP2. I made sure it was selected in the USB devices. The dialogue pops up to install drivers, but nadda. I even directed it to the parallels tools folder, again nadda. Yes I installed the...

    Parallel Tools for BootCamp killed my Windows

    Re: Me too. I followed the instructions and it simply killed Windows completely. Can't even boot it from boot camp. I'm quite certain the parallels tools were installed in XP before attempting to add it via Parallels in OS X. There wasn't really and confirmation dialogue. Nick

    1884 doesn't do Vista RC1 only Beta 2?

    Am I correct in stating this? I have tried RC1 and get a blue screen with a STOP error. However beta 2 starts okay. I really don't want to use beta 2 since a lot has changed with the RC and it also represents final code, unlike the beta which is best for use and development. Any ETA on...

    Product Key?

    I had to redo OS X, and lost my email inbox and my parallels product key. I emailed them a week ago with no reply. Anyone know another process to retrieve this information? Thanks, Nick

    Vista?

    This doesn't answer my question. Anyone attempt it? I will later, but wanted tips on success from others. Nick

    Can't play DVD with WMP or PowerDVD

    I know this may be basic, but why not play it in OS X, where it would work fine w/o any issues? Nick

    DOS and/or older windows?

    Has anyone been successful in installing a version of DOS or and older DOS dependant version of windows, sucj as 95 or 98? I have been unsuccessful in multiple attempts at doing so. Whenever I try to format or partition the drive using fdisk to set the active DOS partition, when I reboot it...

    WOW! Only missing 4 features to have me completely sold!

    LOL, and to think I did that exact thing but it must have just not worked as I only tried it once and figured it wasn't working! Thanks for the info! I guess I'm sold, though my other quirks still would be nice to have fixed unless again i'm ignorant and you can already do them? Thanks again...
