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.

I dropped Parallels after initially purchasing a license and then within 5 months needing to re-purchase another. Recently I have bumped into Sun Microsystem's free Virtualbox and have pretty much written off both Parallels and EMC.

90% of us folks do not need the needless features of these forced upgrades.

Say hello to a screwed economy.
