I’ve been using Parallels Desktop for Mac since the early beta days. I bought a copy for my wife’s MacBook and upgraded to version 3.0 when it was released. It worked pretty well.

As of today, though, I am running VMWare Fusion from a Boot Camp partition. Why? The list:

• Parallels performance went downhill recently.
• Weird Coherence issues – ghost windows, mouse control gone wonky, etc.
• The kicker – my Windows XP image was corrupted.

I have been told by several users that Parallels really messed up their Boot Camp partition. That’s not promising. I may switch back to Parallels, but I’ll need to see performance and reliability increase.
