Life saver
I have wanted to switch from a regular pc to Mac for some time, but the issue was that all of the computer programs I used was for pc. The money it would have cost would have been out of reach. Especially since my computer was working. Parallels made that transition more cost effective and the performance of parallels and my other pc programs has been awesome.

very good program sometimes not obvious
It installs and works similar to other virtual pc programs but allows mac and pc programs to be installed and run side by side (aparrently, i'm sure theres more to it than that). It runs pretty well, be sure you have enough system resourses. 3rd party docs and monitors connected through them, don't render graphic very well all the time (pc only doc, but there were mac drivers for it), but it functions well enough for work. The scaling of fonts on monitors through the doc are odd. Its difficult figuring out that you want apps in "Coherence" mode to see them side by side with mac apps.
