Glad you enjoyed it, Spectre.

I must complain about the incredibly poor experience I am having with this product My list of issues are as follows: The latest beta build 3999, that I obtained by hacking the home computer of the head of Parallels development, is completely unstable on my desktop machine Despite the...

Parallels 3036 on OS X 10.4.8 Macbook with 2Gb RAM I have a Griffin PowerMate. When I start up my VM and try and connect the PowerMate to the XP session using the Devices menu, I get a Kernel Panic and have to reboot OS X. The passthrough of the PowerMate worked fine on the previous 1970...

You need to calm down - this is BETA software, not released product. You use it at your own risk. The reason they have not released it is that it still has bugs and is not finished yet. Really, anyone who installs a beta without backing up their system only has themselves to blame if...

Yeah, right. Wintel is an Intel compile of an x86 emulator. It is not a virtualisation product - and you only need to try it and see its performance to realise that. Parallels uses a different approach, and is a completely different type of product.

I am using Check Point VPN successfully over my MacBook Pro's wireless connection. So there is nothing in the Beta itself that should prevent VPN. Is your client configured to be aware that it has to traverse a network bridge?
