Mac OS X Yesterday, Parallels unveiled Parallels Desktop 4.0. The virtualisation tool for the Mac. Parallels allows you to run several operating systems 'on top' of Mac OS X, similar to VMware, Qemu, and other similar tools. Version 4.0 comes packed with new features and improvements.

Considering how bad Parallels was before, I can believe 50%. VMWare Fusion 2.0 was a far, far better performer and used less memory too.

One thing I especially hated was Parallels NAT network performance...really bad, with tons of CPU use on 100 Mb.
