Technical Support Specialist. Our Parallels Desktop and VMware Fusion shootout took a deep dive into the two most successful commercial virtualization products for the Mac, but many of you had questions about VirtualBox, the free and open source desktop virtualization software currently offered by Oracle.
VMWare Fusion 3.0 vs. Parallels Desktop 5.0 by Alan Zisman (c) 2010 First published in January 5, 2010: Mac2Windows column The October release of Microsoft's Windows 7 brought a flurry of activity on the Mac2Windows front - new versions of both of the major virtualization programs for the Mac platform:. While both have offered relatively straightforward ways to run Windows and other PC operating systems on an Intel Mac with pretty good performance in earlier incarnations, Fusion offered higher-end features - 64-bit and multiprocessor support - while Parallels gave the user better integration with the Mac user interface.
While Parallels Desktop was the first virtualization software for Intel Macs, VMware claims that Fusion now has the most users. With the new Fusion 3.0 and Parallels Desktop 5.0, each company has made an effort to move in on the other product's strengths while improving the 3D performance that has limited the appeal of both products to gamers and other users needing strong 3D graphics capabilities. While this article will be focussing on VMware Fusion and Parallels Desktop, users interested in virtualizing should also pay attention to.
While lacking some of the features of the VMware and Parallels products, VirtualBox has been quietly improving with each release and has one big advantage - it's free. Users should note that any of these virtualization programs make high demands on their computer - you'll need enough RAM to provide an adequate amount of memory for both the guest operating system (Windows or another PC OS) and the host operating system (Mac OS X), since both are running at the same time. As well, you'll need enough free hard drive space for virtual hard drives for each operating system you install. (Nicely, both Fusion and Parallels default to creating expandable virtual drives - Windows may think it's got a 30 GB hard drive, but if you've currently got 16 GB of files installed, the virtual drive will only take up 16 GB of space, not 30). I upgraded my aluminum MacBook's RAM from 2 GB to 4 GB in order to run these programs and replaced the stock 160 GB hard drive with a 500 GB model.
VMware released Fusion 3.0 (US$80) first, just a couple of days after Microsoft officially released Windows 7, while the new version of Parallels (also US$80) came out a few weeks later. Downloadable free trial versions of both are available. On paper, both of these are relatively minor upgrades from the previous versions. Both offer compatibility with Mac OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard' and Windows 7.
