"It does look as if Fusion is not as much of a memory hog as Parallels. But only modestly so. No big differences. Hmmm."

Well, in terms of the feature set -especially for my v. specialized and limited purposes- no, I don't think there are any big differences.

BUT: the only I reason I became interested in another virtualization option was because Parallels has some obvious/annoying lag problems that were only getting worse with each iteration. And one of the demands I have because of the type of software I'm using is speed -that's a real and big difference I've found with Fusion while experimenting for several hours, mainly over a few weekends (and having just read the Mossberg review, I think he should've stressed this fact more; check the forums and you'll see it all over the place).

"which windows os have you tested with Fusion?"
