Publisher's Description
From Parallels:
Parallels Desktop for Mac is the first solution that gives Apple users the ability to run Windows, Linux or any other operating system and their critical applications at the same time as Mac OS X on any Intel-powered iMac, Mac Mini, MacBook or MacBook Pro.
Unlike dual-boot solutions, in which users must completely shut down Mac OS X and endure a full OS start-up cycle to access a important application, Parallels Desktop for Mac empowers users with the ability to run important Windows programs like Outlook, Access, Internet Explorer and all other applications without having to give up the usability and functionality of their Mac OS X machine even for a few minutes.

"If you have to have a Windows program, this works."
Version: Parallels Desktop 6.0.11992
Pros
Almost don't notice it's running in coherence mode. I have it set to pause when my single (and only) windows program is running.
No need to reboot.
Fast.Cons
You have to buy it.
Summary
It's worth the money. It runs fast and doesn't stick Windows in your face.

"This app works so well it seems like sorcery."
Version: Parallels Desktop 6.0.11992
Pros
Running two or more whole different operating systems simultaneously, flawlessly, how do they do that? Hardly anything works as well as Parallels does.
Cons
It would be great if USB devices like printers could switch seamlessly between OS's without any manual switching, but this is really trifling compared to how well everything works.
