What's new in this version:
Its now easier to install Windows on a Mac than it is to install
Windows on a PC! That's due to the inclusion of our new Installation
Assistant into today's build of Parallels Desktop for Mac. The
Installation Assistant will complete the entire installation process
for you - you won't have to select any configurations, answer and
questions, or make decisions about partitions or options. Just sit
back, relax, and wait for the Assistant to finish. The Installation
Assistant also automatically installs Parallels Tools, a useful set
of add-ons that enable file sharing, cutting/pasting/copyings between
OSes, syncs your mouse and system clock, and improves networking,
video and sound performance.
The new build also includes a great new "Shared Networking" mode that
enables you to get your virtual machine online, regardless of what
type of internet connection you're using. Shared Networking works by
hiding your virtual machine IP addresses behind your Mac's IP,
meaning that even connections like DSL or Cable modems that only
allow 1 IP to register will work with virtual machines. In short, it
means that if your Mac is connected to the internet, so is your
virtual machine. No manual configuration required.
