Get VMware Fusion for $39
Written on June 13, 2007 by Nick Santilli and 5 people have commented
Derik at MacUser points out that VMware is driving hard to the net in regards to the virtualization battle with Parallels. If you pre-order the 1.0 version now (which is expected by end of August) you get the normally $79 license for just $39. Sweet deal for a top virtualization contender for Macs.

#1 tycho says:And yes, what we’ve seen on the web is pretty impressive. But for those of us that have Parallels installed already, the inability to utilise Parallels’ XP installation makes for a tedious crossgrade…
#2 seth says:good call there tycho; in fact, i followed an out of date “conversion” process for parallels xp vm install to a fusion one and it was a total failure. i really wanted to try out the fusion betas, but i don’t want to go through the hassle of getting my copy of xp re-registered/verified through ms and also to have to resetup my visual studio dev. environment. bottom line, fusion looks awesome, but until i can convert or just USE my parallels xp install in fusion, i won’t get around to trying it out anytime soon. ’sides i just dropped a few more bones on v3 of parallels after buying their initial offering earlier this year.
