I'd say VMWare Fusion rather than Parallels incidentally. I've used  
Parallels for a few months, decided to try Fusion when Parallels  
barfed on a couple of Linux distros (Gentoo, Gutsy) and discovered  
that Fusion also runs Windows more effectively. I couldn't easily  
forget that I had a Windows VM running under Parallels - occasionally  
the machine would become pretty jerky and unresponsive for a few  
seconds. I get none of that with Fusion.

I have a paid up Parallels licence if anyone would like it :)
