VMware fusion - anyone used this?

[Ou grote]

Buy this over Parallels.

I used Parallels and haven't had any problems.
I used to use BootCamp, though grew tired of it and downloaded Parallels. It picked up that I had already made a partition called "BootCamp" and asked if it wanted to make the partition a virtual one. I said yes and in a few minutes it had made the change and haven't had a problem at all. Haven't tried Fushion so can't comment.

What does it have that Parallels doesn't?

tx
So it's 1 -1 then

Question about Vmware Fusion: if a program needs internet access (for updates etc) is this easily allowed? Thinking permissions/ firewall problems. (Ja, I know, I'm using you guys instead of google. But you all are so much nicer )

Why? Both seem pretty good to me.

I want to buy this or Parallels on the weekend.

Is it any good?
Main things I want to use from XP are MS Money and Grabit

Did you pick up your free copy of crossover the other day?

You should try the demo but the give away was a one day only event.

I know this is a VERY old thread, but I actually just got the latest verison of fusion, and it actually runs very well. Now to convince the peeps at work to let me use this to do my MSSQL stuff at work, and let me use my mac to do JAVA dev
