On the flip side, VMware Fusion was a snap to use. I also had Bootcamp in place and it works well, but I found it too much of a hassle to have to reboot the machine to use a Windows only program/application. ... The speed in which you can launch Windows in Fusion is great. Besides the fact you can take snapshots of your Windows install that you can reuse later if say Windows gives you problems - not that that would ever happen! :) I don't use Fusion everyday but I do find it very handy from time to time. My 30 day trial is running out and I do intend to buy it. Stefan Ian,

I do also have Parallels but it won't create a virtual machine to access my Windows installation because the partition is formatted as FAT32 (recommended by Apple) not NTFS (recommended by Avanquest/Parallels).
