[DM-MUG] Parallels or Fusion?

[kristau]

Both Parallels and Fusion are very comparable on features.  Being a
Parallels user myself, I'm a bit biased, but I think either will work
well for what you want to do.  The "killer" feature of both is the
ability to run your windows applications directly on the Mac desktop.
Parallels calls this feature "coherence," but VMware Fusion does it,
too.
