VMware Fusion	Oct 29 2009	ACURAICE of Course I'm on Drugs! And I don't know about you but, VMware and Parallels both blow. Yes, they appear to be emulating windows flawlessly on the surface, but under the hood, they are slow,bulky pieces of software. They also only support older pixel shader and direct X 9.0 technology, what that means is if you even attempt to run a game that from 2001 or newer, if you get past the loading screen, it will most surely be choppy and display an errors and most definitely crash ! If your a hardcore gamer like me, you can easily download any copy of of a windows installation cd and be up and running boot camp in about 25 mins! Boot camp is flawless, since your running windows natively, not some cheesy,RAM hungry emulator! Trust me, Boot camp rocks, and performs dramatically better. And as for the side by side thing, what could you possibly be doing that you need to run both operating systems side by side for???? Do you work at a hospital? All you have to do with boot camp is simply drag and drop any file on your bootcamp partition icon, and viola, it appears on your windows desktop the next time you run it! simple as pie...for us more advanced people!

ITISTODAY I'm confused, are you outraged at VMware or your own inability to understand why someone could have a legitimate use for it?

I know I have a legitimate use for such technology: I sometimes need to be able to test and develop software for two different systems at the same time. The only way I can do that is by using virtualization (in my case, Parallels, though I'm sure VMware is great too).

I'm sure other people have other legitimate reasons for paying the $80. So please, chillax, if you don't have a use for it, that's great, but no need to flip out about it.

ST00P!D M0NK3Y Are you on drugs or do you not realize why people may have actual use for virtualization software? Sometimes we actually have a need to run Windows alongside OS X simultaneously for cross-platform window-sharing, and VMWare Fusion is the best at what it does, in my opinion. I was having issues with Windows 7 in 2.0, but this new release has cleared all of that up, so thanks to to the devs once again for this amazing software.

Monolingual	Sep 8 2009	ACURAICE I have been using this program for years! Has always worked flawlessly. Not sure why the developer has released this update for Snow Leopard, when I just used this program days ago without any errors, including to remove the additional unnecessary architectures in Snow Leopard with the slightly older version. Not sure exactly whats been updated, but as for being compatible with Snow Leopard, it has been. Keep up the great work! I would have gladly paid for this program and all of your had work.
