    Hello everyone,

    just wanted to open a thread to share our feedbacks on PD7 configurations on our Macbook's.
    My system is:

    Macbook Pro 2011
    Quad-Core 2.2 i7
    8 Gb 1333 DDR3 Ram
    128 Gb SSD Drive

    PD Configuration, i assigned to the VM the following:
    4 Cores
    4 Gb Ram
    Hyper-whatever
    Set to "Best Performance to the VM"

    I just installed PD7 and it is running very smooth, just i'm pretty annoyed by that little flickering i get when i drag windows applications around. Anyone else noticing this? I think it should really fly with my actual setup.
    Please leave any feedback on that,
    Thanks.

    that happens with me also, but only on coherence mode... on a window it doesn't...

    Very weird isn't it? I wish someone from Parallels could tell us if the problem may be the 1Gb Ram we're dedicating to the VM.
    Also, the animations when i minimize a window in full screen mode is very laggy, and i think it shouldn't with this setup.
    Any feedback welcome.
