    Hi,

    I am considering buying a mac and was hoping to get this program to help me run some of my other OS's. My question is, if I use bootcamp to format a windows partition in NTFS (say 75 Gigs), can I set up parallels to read that specific windows partition (eg, I bootcamp into windows, install a program and then try to launch parallels from OS X, will it still be the same install), or do I have to set up two windows installs.

    Does it make a difference if I use NTFS or FAT32? For obvious reasons I would prefer NTFS...

    Thank you for your help..

    Yes you can use the same NTFS Bootcamp partition natively and in Parallels, that's in fact one of the most publicized selling points of Parallels.
