Parallels has released the free Official Update of Parallels Desktop for Mac with a new installation assistant tool, shared networking support, and compatibility for Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard developer build and Windows Vista.
More info and download link here.
Parallels rocks as much as running Windows in OSX can.
I love the constant updates. Makes me feel like I’m getting my money’s worth.
having trouble getting this to load on my g4, very unsatisfied
You are kidding, right, Bondi Blue?
i am having trouble with parallels on OS 8, why wont it load? i thought macs were supposed to be better… this is bullshit!
Eric, yes.
yeah and there is no slot for the airport extreme card i bought in my powerbook 1400! what the hell man!
Are they issuing press releases everyday to get site traffic? This is the same ol’, same ol’ RC3 build 3170 that has been there for at least a month.
Oh yes, bondi blue, you’re not for real are you? …doesn’ run on a g4
I’m having a hell of a time loading Leopard on my TRS80. WTF, Apple? ;P
-c
as soon as new machines with Leopard hit, i’m buying one!
typhoon:
i second that
Oh, and I don’t know what you guys are complaining about, Parallels runs fine on both my TI99/4a and Atari 2600 (with extended basic cartridge…or was that on the TI99/4a?)
Smoke-screen? Is Apple really holding back “secret” features? If these magical “top secret” features aren’t in the latest builds, how are developers supposed to prepare for them?
Nah….the Atari 2600 requires the Starpath Supercharger in order to load Parallels.
Not buying one until there’s a version that loads on my soon-to-be new CFFA card for my IIgs.
Erm… Art? No it’s not. It’s pretty clearly labeled “Parallels Desktop 3186”. Are you clicking on the correct link?
I can’t help w/Parallels but if you want I can send a cassette with Final Cut Studio optimized for the TRS80.
Just think, in a parallel universe, Apple is a monopolistic beast and someone is making software to virtually run windows on -OSX.
Anybody here ever work with storing data and programs on paper tape?
MDN: are you deleting my posts?
is it because i criticize you?
Paper tape and punch cards, both.
Had to enter a boot loader from the front panel before the paper tape reader could read the tape on the HP 3100.

To load it onto a TRS80, yoou MUST make sure that its dilithium crystals are fully charged. If not, the transistor tachyons are not emitted properly.
The same thing happened when ET couldn’t phone home.
HAVE WE NOT LEARNED ANTHING HERE PEOPLE???????????????
The download doesn’t work. Has anyone been able to download the new version successfully. I try downloading, and it downloads about 9MB and says it’s done. I know this isn’t a support forum, but I figured I would see if everyone else is having the same problems.
Thank you Bob, that’s changed…I must have caught them mid site update. My comment about daily press releases was because Macworld reported this yesterday. I didn’t find 3186 yesterday either… Anyway, I did find it now!
The website isn’t consistent. Some links bring you to RC2, others to RC3, and the one that brings you to build 3186 Doesn’t seem to be working right now. After attempting to download Build 3186 the download viewer says “mounting failed” after downloading only 1 of 58 Mb.
Suggestions?
MW: “down” as in download? yikes.
It seems to be working now, but can’t you all wait your turn? Current download speed is 6.9 KB/sec. The Parallels people can only offer so much bandwidth. Why don’t you all wait until I am done downloading, then I’ll let you know when it’s your turn.
