    SO I bought Parallels Desktop 5 today and like it but I have noticed a few things. I am using my Windows 7 boot camp partition as the main virtual machine. When booting windows 7 DOES NOT use its fancy animated boot. Then once I restart my computer and run Windows 7 natively it also doesn't use the animated boot. It uses the Vista boot sequence? Is this normal? Any suggestions?

    I noticed the sound skips and stutters very badly in Parallels. Playing an MP3 file in winamp or the media player causes the song to skip. Running Windows 7 natively songs play fine. Anyone experiencing this? Thanks

    My Specs:

    2010 MBP 15" | Core i5 2.4Ghz | 4GB DDR3 Ram | Intel X25 M 160 G2 SSD |Nvidia GT 330M | HR Display
