neither, if ur gamer just use boot camp. parallels doesnt support 3d grafics and vmware supposedly does but its really laggy and i tried it with a 3.06 processor and a nividia geforce 9600…

Is VMWARE Fusion better for gaming or Parallels Desktop?

No, VMware in general is not good for gaming. You never want to virtualize the OS when running games. For everything else, VMware is great.

I was wondering the same thing

anytime there are lyrics just google the lyrics and 99% of the time you’ll find out.

doing that brought me to find “Love Today by Mika”

LOL…chris…u took the words right out of my mouth..Just couldnt get it figured. Thought there was a bug (just got fusion 3 today, user of workstation on PC for ages prior).

Went to VMWares website, support forums, read users guide, tried help..nothing. Came to Youtube and seconds into it..BOOM!..”OH..I GET IT NOW”.

Fundamentally what threw me was not seeing the Windows UI..but that’s the point…unity on MacOS!

i mean, just in case such is possible of course. the idea of allowing a mac to possibly run a virus file kinda gives me the creeps – even with securities and the possibility of remaking the whole thing again… specially after screwing up a PC hard disk with a virus 1 year ago =(

I’d rather run OS 10.6 Snow Leopard on a Pc than installing windows on my Mac =O

I want to kick myself in the penis for not figuring this out sooner. Thank you very much for this video. I have been racking my brain forever trying to figure this out. Navigating through help menus, various VMWare forums. Everything I could think of. My last resort was YouTube. And what do you know, 30 seconds into your video I get EXACTLY what has eluded me for son long! THANK YOU!

deluxedookie February 19, 2010 at 6:51 am

LINUX is all you need same programswith different names for free.

deluxedookie February 19, 2010 at 6:54 am

linux & mac osx are both built on top of unix so that shouldnt be too hard.

KineticKrusha February 19, 2010 at 7:48 am

yes you can, i have and you dont need a genuine copy of windows. stop chatting breeze.

… just fine. Maybe something is wrong with the deinstaller… pretty weird problem, but happily it was easy to solve. This is just a warning what VMWare can do to your machine, but in general it worked very fine for me. So have fun guys ;)

spy386 February 19, 2010 at 9:42 am

VMWare crashed my pc. After the installation I couldn’t boot any longer. (Blue screen). I googled the hex error code and found out that something is wrong with the network system file. (The one who saves the network connections etc.) So I took the network system file from my XP CD and everything worked fine again. I had and I ll always have a 100% clean system, but somehow VMWare Workstation messed it up… hmm.. the error only occured at the second installation. The first installation worked…

You can download a cracked version of VMware and Windows.

maw88ify February 19, 2010 at 10:58 am

vmware Will also let you run Mac OS X on a PC, not only that I know how to run any Mac OS on linux with out the need for window…

ssshhh but don’t tell Apple. HAHAHAHA

Because then one certain person or a group of person will own the whole economy of operating systems. Which is huge cause everyone need’s an os and it will be expensive (like microsoft is).
Look at bill gates he almost owns the economy of Operating systems, luckily that’s is changeing slowly
