    How should I setup my ubuntu 8.10 partitions?

    By default the Ubuntu 8.10 installer wants to use the "entire disk", which it calculates to be 34.4GB. I only have 23GB available on my hard drive. I'd like the entire Ubuntu installation to take up no more than about 5GB on my drive, if that is possible. But, I don't know how to manually...

    5582/Win XP/10.5.1 as stable as 5160/Win XP/10.4.10?

    Hi guys, Well I've been holding off upgrading to Leopard until the general consensus was that Parallels was ready for prime time with the new OS. I'm starting to get that feeling, based on posts here and around the net. I'd like someone from the Parallels team to offer their...

    Is Parallels Dead?

    Patience, young padawan. I'm guessing the 10.5.1 certified update for Parallels will come out sometime after the Thanksgiving weekend and before the Xmas break. Like you, I have had Leopard sitting on my desk since 10/26. In fact, I bought the first copy at my local Apple store on release...

    Is it safe to upgrade to Leopard yet?

    Again, I'm waiting until Parallels releases a 10.5.1 *CERTIFIED* release. I work in the software business so I know how complex this stuff can be. Anyone who's already upgraded to Leopard that is dependent on Parallels is clearly an early adopter and there are caveats in doing so. I depend...

    Is it safe to upgrade to Leopard yet?

    I'm holding off until 10.5.1 is released and Parallels has specifically released an update that has been verified against 10.5.1. Until then I am sticking with Tiger.

    Safe to install Parallel Tools (3170) for use w/ Boot Camp?

    Ah, I see I don't need to install the tools, looks like this was already done for me. So I've got an Internet Explorer icon on my OS X dock now. When I click it, Parallels launches but IE does not. Anyone have a work around? Also, I sometimes get a message stating the boot camp vm could not...

    Safe to install Parallel Tools (3170) for use w/ Boot Camp?

    Hi, I just recently purchased Parallels Desktop for Mac. I installed it and upgraded to 3170. The first time I ran the installer, I selected to use my Boot Camp partition. I want to be able to set up coherent mode so that I can put my favorite Windows app icons on my OS X dock. When I...

    What are the biggest limitations of Parallels at this point?

    I feel your pain. I agree, it's really dumb they do this, but the Department of Real Estate is run by idiots (DMV types). The local boards are sheep. I found a post here stating that this works as of build 3094! Yay! Thanks, and I'll be picking up a copy today.

    What are the biggest limitations of Parallels at this point?

    Hi, I'm anxious to get Parallels installed, but before I invest in it, I'd like to know what the biggest limitations are with the product. I will need reliable USB access, as I develop embedded software, and need the USB port to program devices. Presently, the windows IDE I use to write...

    Bootcamp + Parallels: OEM or Retail?

    What is the cheapest and legal way to get XP home edition activated under both bootcamp and parallels? I could buy the OEM version from NewEgg for about $90. I'm thinking I should call M$ first and tell them my intentions and see what they say about that. I need to know they'll give me a...
