Parallels Desktop 5 for Macs released

Parallels 

Parallels have today released the newest version of their Desktop for Mac product. Parallels Desktop 5 for Mac is the latest offering of the Hardware Virtualization software for the Mac and boasts improved support for the Snow Leopard and Windows 7 operating systems among other new features.

For anyone who isnt familiar with the software it allows Mac users to run both the native Mac OS and a virtual machine with another OS on the same hardware at the same time.

The full product is available for £59.99 direct from Parallels, existing users can upgrade for £34.99. At Glo Networks we have been using the beta release of Desktop 5 for Macs for some months now and have experienced mix results, as such we would recommend signing up for the Trial before purchasing the full product.

We now have the release version of the product and will be testing, we’ll follow up soon with our thoughts
