Soap Box Friday: Parallels Desktop Mentions Of The Week

http://blogs.parallels.com

We seem to be the talk of the town this week.  Why are we so popular?  Take a look at the articles discussing Parallels this week:Parallels Desktop 5 Review (Mac OS X) by John Thompson Before Parallels 5, I wouldn’t have recommended virtual gaming to
anyone wanting decent performance, but with Parallels 5, I struggle to
find any major complaints when running GPU intensive applications.
Using the Macbook, I was able to play any game ranging from FarCry to
even Call of Duty 4 with decent performance. Obviously, you still won’t
get performance as you would running Windows from a separate partition,
but you’ll definitely notice a performance boost from Parallels 4.
How To Install Google’s Chrome OS On Mac using Parallels Desktop 5 by Sayam AggarwalGoogle’s Chrome Operating System
is a Google’s answer to Mac OS X or Windows 7  — a lightweight
operating system designed for netbooks and other portable devices. It’s
also designed for an always-on connection. The Net is as much a part of
the system as the software installed on the computer.
It’s also lightweight, fast, and easy to use. Boot up in just a
matter of few seconds, log in and get onto the internet instantly. No
distractions at all. Moreover, everything remains in  the cloud so you
never have to worry about running out of the disk space.
It’s also fun to play with. Here’s how to install it on a Mac using Parallels Desktop 5 virtualization software. Be aware that Chrome OS is currently in pre-alpha developmental stage. Install at your own risk!People are even tweeting about us:@eWytze Upgraded to the latest build of @ParallelsMac last night. Damn that's some good software.
