    Parallels Desktop 3.0 for Mac

  • Parallels Workstation 2.2: One Machine. Multiple Operating Systems. Unlimited Possibilities.

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 is the most powerful, easiest-to-use, cost-effective desktop virtual PC solution available today. It empowers any user, from experienced professional developers to sales executives to casual home users, with the ability to create completely networked, totally secure independent, maximally stable virtual machines on a single physical machine.

    Parallels Workstation 2.2

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 is a fast virtualization solution that enables you to run multiple operating systems simultaneously on your Windows or Linux workstation.

    Trusted Technology for Powerful Performance

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 is a hardware emulation virtualization solution. This stable, trusted technology maps the host computer’s hardware resources directly to each virtual PC’s resources, allowing each virtual machine to operate identically to a stand-alone computer. Parallels Workstation’s sophisticated virtual machine engine enables each virtual machine to work with its own processor, RAM, floppy and CD drives, I/O devices, and hard disk – everything a physical computer contains.

    The World’s First Hypervisor-powered Virtual PC Solution

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 is the first desktop virtualization solution to include a lightweight hypervisor, a mature technology originally developed in the 1960s to maximize the power of large mainframes. Hypervisor technology dramatically improves virtual machine stability, security and performance by using a thin layer of software, inserted between the machine’s hardware and the primary operating system, to directly control some of the host machine’s hardware profiles and resources. It not only makes Parallels Workstation-powered virtual machines secure, stable and efficient, but also empowers users to immediately realize the benefits associated with Intel VT hardware virtualization architecture.

    Key Features:

    Hypervisor Technology for Stronger, More Stable Virtual Machines:

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 is the first desktop virtualization solution to include a lightweight hypervisor that directly controls some of the host computer’s hardware resources. The inclusion of this trusted, mature technology ensures that virtual PCs built using Parallels Workstation are the most stable and efficient available.

    Optimized for Hardware Virtualization:

    Parallels Workstation's lightweight hypervisor fully supports the benefits of next-generation CPUs built on Intel’s VT architecture, and will support AMD Pacifica architecture when it is released to the general public.

    Strong OS Support:

    A sophisticated virtual machine engine that offers the broadest support of x86-based operating systems, including the entire Windows family - 3.1, 3.11, 95, 98, Me, 2000, XP and 2003, Linux distributions from popular distributors like Red Hat, SuSE, Mandriva, Debian and Fedora Core, FreeBSD, “Legacy” operating systems like OS/2, eComStation and MS-DOS.

    Easy to Install, Easy to Use:

    A powerful wizard enables users to create virtual machines in seconds. The industry’s cleanest, most user-friendly management console ensures hassle free control of all virtual machines.

    Highly Efficient:

    A small program footprint and trusted hypervisor technology maximizes the efficiency of both the primary and guest OSes.

    Lowest TCO:

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 is the most cost effective virtual PC solution available today. Its ease of use, high-efficiency, quick startup time and responsive technical support program maximize value and significantly reduce TCO.

    Parallels Workstation 2.2 - most powerful, easiest-to-use, cost-effective solution for running multiple operating systems on Windows or Linux.

    Running Windows in Parallels Desktop for Mac is now more secure than if you run Windows on a PC.

There is no chance of infecting your Mac with a Windows virus, spyware or malware. Because Parallels Desktop virtual machine files can be easily compressed by 50% or more with built-in Parallels Compressor technology, you can easily back up your whole Windows virtual machine on a network or even burn it to a CD or DVD.
