    Hi there!

    I just have a short question.
    Is it possible to install VMWare and Parallels on one machine and use both?

    I personally would prefer Parallels, but sometimes i have to create/exchange VM's with my Company/Collegues who all use Windows and VMWare.....

    Can the VMWare Import Tool be used to import Parallels 5 VM's?

    Questions Questions Questions... ;-)))))))

    Thank's for any answer!!!!!!

    Kind Regards,
    Heribert

    Yes, it works. I have sometimes Parallels 5 (Win7) and VMWave 3 (XP) running in parallel in my iMac. But you will need a lot of RAM (I have 4 GB) and the machine is slower that usually. For short tasks it's OK.
