    I am using a MacBook Air 11" (i7, HD3000), and am testing Parallels 7 in comparison to VMware Fusion.

    One of the things I enjoy are legacy games, specifically the Homeworld series. Under VMware, I chose the OpenGL rendering, and then change registry settings to the 1366x768 resolution. The games work wonderfully in full screen mode.

    When I tested Parallels 6, this sort of worked with some banding/rendering issues.

    Under Parallels 7, it does not work at all. Only the standard 1024x768 modes seem to work. Otherwise, there is only black screen. Homeworld2 warns to download updated drivers from Parallels.

    Any suggestions?
