When Apple released Intel, Windows switches and Mac users who need to run Windows application occasional happy. itâ?? S as the change of chip was quickly followed by the launch of virtualization software that allows users to run Windows as if it were another application on their Mac. While virtualization applications first donâ?? T support all WindowsÂ???? Features and Werena S? T awfully fast, you were miles better than Windows emulation programs that were previously available for the PowerPC processor. Since then, however, requests Mac virtualization has matured a lot. Four options are available: two commercial virtualization applications (Parallels Desktop for Mac and VMware Fusion), an open source alternative (VirtualBox), and a solution that allows you to install Windows applications without installing Windows (crossed). The first two options are more popularâ????, Y, for most users, the most sensibleâ???? Alternatives. Iâ? Will see many generations of Parallels and Fusion, and IA???? I saw grow. Progress theyâ??? I've done have been amazing. Both developers have pushed each other hard, and its products are ahead of the other to introduce new features and improve performance, resulting in two excellent alternatives. The performance of these current generation virtualization programsâ two???? 8 Parallels Desktop for Mac and VMware Fusion 5Â???? In one of todayâ? Mac S ultra-fast, that most Windows users enthusiasts will feel the need to reboot into Boot Camp to run Windows natively. Another result of this competition is that the twin programs are close to each other. They offer similar characteristics, such as performance, and even look alike. There are some differences, however, and Thata? S what I focused on the evaluation of the latest versions of each. opening and closing The two virtualization applications differ Speeda???? No operating system or virtual speed applications themselves to them, but the speed with which they open, sleep and resume shutdown of the operating system. In some simple tests, I found that Parallels is much faster in each of these tasks, but also to suspend and resume. If you need to open and close the virtual machines all day, these time savings could increase significantly.
Virtualization Both applications are relatively stable. Donâ ? T T has a simple accident either, but we had some minor problems at once. In the merger, for example, in and out of full screen mode and flashes more decisions redesigned in Parallels. Using Parallels, however, had some applications fail on Windows (which donâ ? T t Happen Fusion), and there were times when you just couldnâ? T type my password in the entry system Linux.
Virtualization Windows Meanwhile Fusion and Parallels support literally hundreds of guest operating systems, most users are used to perform one or more versions of Windows. In general, both do a great job. In previous reviews, I found that both Parallels and Fusion does well earlier versions of Windows, so this time I focused on the upcoming Windows 8. For testing purposes, I used the latest Windows 8 Developer Preview (which must be the same as the consumer version coming soon). Both'm doing well, most of the time. (Note:. What is called the Metro interface of Windows 8 is now generally just start, or sometimes the user interface of Windows 8) For the traditional Windows interface (Desktop Start button), the two applications running Windows, as well as its predecessors. Office applications are executed without delay, and I never felt as if something was running in the two programs. The interface of Windows itself was fast and fluid web browsing is smooth, and the two messaging apps I tried worked well. Windows 8 running in VMware Fusion 5.

Trying to use
startup applications, while Consistency (Parallels) or drive (Fusion) modes (which give each Windows application its own OS X Windows) has had its challenges. It can be done in the merger, but only if you have a house at a time. If you start another, replacing the application is running.
Parallels
trying to solve this problem by each time you start the application in full screen on your own desktop OS X. In theory, this should allow a user to run multiple applications at the same time the beginning. In my tests, however, I found that donâ?? T quite work. Sometimes I could not select workstations, at other times, you can select the desktop, but not the application itself. (I must say that Parallelsâ???? Supporting Windows 8 is still in development, so some glitches Arena? G unexpected.) In short, if you want to run startup applications, Thena???? With these two programs??? Keep Windows in windowed mode, and you wonâ?? T have any problems.

If you like to play a game of this arena???? Available for Mac, Fusion and Parallelsâ t???? ability to accelerate 3D graphics in Windows is a wonderful thing. With recent versions, Parallels has taken a clear lead at the front of the game. I tried many games and most often seen better graphics and faster speeds in Parallels I did melt. For example, I installed the demo of ARMA 2, which includes an internal benchmarking tool. With this tool, with the same detail and resolution settings in both Parallels and Fusion, Parallels generates 40 frames per second; merger could manage only 11 years old. I got similar results when I tested each virtualization program???? S speed with Cinebench OpenGL. also tried the demo of Just Cause 2, which runs on Steam. Although both applications on virtualization, Parallels can only work because the game requires DirectX 10. (Fusion only supports DirectX 9.0c.) Not only the race, it worked pretty well. Although the Parallels support for DirectX 10 is marked as experimental, it worked well in my tests. Both Fusion and Parallels Added support for Retina displays when running Windows, you can run with a pixel resolution Retina dual or total. Both programs now support USB 3, Parallels includes exchanging Bluetooth.
Parallels allows you to drag and drop attachments directly from Outlook on Windows has a wizard to help those who use Windows submission to make presentations on projectors. Now you can also drag and drop files and folders between Windows and Mac OS X.
virtualization OS X and Linux
Want to try something suspicious piece of software? Using a virtual machine. You want to experiment with changing the system configuration? Using a virtual machine. Running a virtual copy of Mac OS X is useful for all sorts of reasons. But if you can accept some limitations, the two virtualization applications run OS X very well.
two, it is easy to virtualize mountain lion, using the installation file itself or the recovery partition Lion Mountain. Unfortunately, both suffer from the same defects:??? Youâ will find a virtual machine OS X has much less energy than equivalent Windows. You Cana???? T accelerated 3D graphics. You Cana???? T drag and drop files between the virtual operating system and the real OS. You Cana???? T execute a multi-screen virtual OS X.
Parallels done something when running OS X Fusion: You can copy graphs from the installation and virtual OS X (Fusion load only the text in the clipboard).
