Parallels Workstation v2.2.2222 - Windows & Linux by EMBRACE
Parallels Workstation is one of those so called “virtualization” applications (if you know what is VMware, this is “same sh!t different package” 
). In short this program allows you to install different OS (operating system) side-by-side on your main OS. For example if you’re running WinXP you can install some of Linux editions (Ubuntu for example) or vice versa. EMBRACE has released two editions of this, one for Windows users and other for Linux users. If you’re new to this virtualization stuff, you can read more about it on wiki. Personally i prefer VMware instead, but we all have different tastes.
Description:
Use Windows? Like Linux? Have it all on a single PC.
Parallels Workstation is an easy-to-use, easy-on-the-pocket solution that lets you run Windows, Linux and more side-by-side on a single PC without rebooting.
Truly revolutionary, Parallels Workstation empowers users of any skill level - including computer professionals, sales executives and home users - to easily run multiple operating systems on a single computer. Completely networked. Stable. Secure.

i guess a quad bycicle and rolls royce are “same sh!t” as well… four weels, gets you places… comparing parallels to vmware workstation is kinda like that.
@7 lemz and the Rolls Royce product is? Not having used either I’m not familiar with either, which is better?
This is total piece of garbage.
I couldn’t even boot from windows xp image. It boots up fine in regular computer even in virtualbox and vmware.
One good thing I could say though, it didn’t ask for reboot after installation and uninstall. That’s about it.
no torrent found
which do you guys prefer? vmware, parallels or ms virtual pc?
i’ve installed this and my xp is now in spanish.. i think
waste of time. CPU killer Paralells has the same need to eat 120% of your resources as VMWarePlayer does.
The question is: why would I need another OS on my Computer?!
a)i have linux and want to run WindowsTools.
Try Wine…AdobeCreativeSuite 2 works fine.
DX aint working anyways.
b)i have windows and just want to see how linux
looks like. Try a LiveCD.
c)I have to run many different services of serveral OSs with just one machine. GSX or ESX by VMware is your only solution.
Yet any solution but a full virtualisation Server like ESX or GSX sucked to me. I dont want VMWarePlayer or Para or VirtualPC to eat all my memory while keeping the original Desktop also in RAM.
VMware…..pshhhhh…..dual-boot FTW!!!!!!!
@ IzaHova
how can i make a dual-boot?
i have win xp and i want winxp and then ubuntu 7.10
do u have a tutorial?
@Criss
Yes, there is tutorial how to make dual-boot, and here it is

I’m a Linux user and i’m using “Virtualbox” its free and very.. very.. very nice. (i like it better than vmware)
No support for x64?
yh, and I just want to run x64 system on WinXP x64, and even VmWare cant do it. :/
n00bware
have some drivers for something I want to do but they are written for linux only and that will be the only thing I will use it for so perfect solution for me really I guess.
Very useful for testing but doesn’t beat VMWare, yet.
VMWare is the standard for cross-os virtualization (as opposed to the virtualization built in the linux kernel, but that is for linux->linux). Don’t even waste your time with ANYTHING else, seriously.
Gentoo ftw!
holy crap this thing is 20megs?? How come VMware I’m using is so bloody big?
Because VMWare is much more useful.
MS Virtual Server or Virtual PC are free and don’t use as much resources as VMware when running on a Windows host.
can anyone link a torrent or rapidshare for vmware please? I would really appreciate it.
@ R_unit
google this:
VMware.Workstation.v6.0.2.59824.Incl.Keymaker.INTERNAL-EMBRACE
@ Christian
thank you very much.
@ Illusion
thanks for the tutorial
I Dualboot xp pro and mandriva one (only distro ive found that works with crappy broadcom wireless card).Virtualbox is my choice on both.Usefull for testing keygens and new software.
cool, parallels. more options, yay! i prefer virtualbox cuz its smoooooth and works very well under linux. cant speak for the windows version tho. heres a nice little review compare 4 virtualization software if you are interested. [url]http://www.techthrob.com/tech/linux_virtualization.php[/url]
I’ve tried VMWare and Virutalbox (free open source):
VMWare Workstation (NOT the VMWare Player) works great under XP. External USB drives work very well.
Virtualbox works just fair under XP. USB support is unstable.
Is there a OS X version (parallels were dedicated to OS X in the past) ?
You should read this http://www.techthrob.com/tech/linux_virtualization.php
Maybe you will find other software that works better…
VMWare is an OS like Yahoo? does it come with the internet? what about games? can i play GTA4 under this thing called ‘linux’? thanks sorry for the n00b question
how can i open the keymaker on ubuntu?
