7/6     I just got my macbook. Anyone have any experience using Parallels?
        Is it fast (compared to say, bootcamp)?
        \_ It won't be as fast as bootcamp -- the VM has a single CPU,
           not the dual core you get native -- but I've been using it
           and so far it's pretty snappy, particularly in full-screen
           mode.  And it's much more convenient -- lets you set up
           a shared folder to move files between the VM and the Mac.
           Two thumbs up. --dpassage
        \_ Bootcamp is wickedly fast on my Mini.  Parallel is a bit
           slower, but still feels very fast compared to VirtualPC
           (VPC for Windows is slower than Parallels).  One complaint
           I have is that on a MacBook, to suspend the VM, the swapping
           to hard disk takes quite some time when I have around 600MB
           to swap to hard disk.
