Paralles releases Parallel Desktop for Mac, a virtual machine software which enables you to run WindowsXP and MacOSX at the same time.
According to their website, it should be better than Apple Boot Camp:
Unlike dual-boot solutions, in which users must completely shut down Mac OS X and endure a full OS start-up cycle to access a important application, Parallels Desktop for Mac empowers users with the ability to run important Windows programs like Outlook, Access, Internet Explorer and all other applications without having to give up the usability and functionality of their Mac OS X machine even for a few minutes.
In my experience, this kind of tools (like VMWare), sucks a lot of resources, so you can have a benefit that cannot be exploited at most, because you are suffering minute after minute the lack of resources, in particular you need more memory. And, believe me, it really upsets you…
You can get a 15 days trial, so I think I’ll give it a try. I already installed bootcamp, and it works well. The point here is that, using MacOSX, I don’t need Windows any more
