[OT] Parallels Desktop - multiple OS's on a Mac

[Andrus Adamchik <an...@objectstyle.org>]

Just installed Parallels Desktop trial on my Mac:

http://www.parallels.com/

Works very nice - now I have Mac OS X (obviously), Windows XP (booted  
from the Mac bootcamp partition) and Fedora Core 4 Linux - all on one  
desktop.  Finally I don't have to maintain multiple old boxes with  
various OS's to access the full test environment for Cayenne :-)

Yeah, it is pretty slick, although I must admit I get bored pretty
quickly playing with it (Win2K in my case -- the only version of
Windows I have) and just go back to OS X.  My biggest complaint is
Parallels chews up memory, but I suppose that is to be expected
virtualizing an OS under another OS.  Other than that, it is freaky
good.
