This software seemed to work OK with version 4. I upgraded to 5 and have never gotten it to work. It seems to hang at the update to their security software. I'm tired of wasting time and am thinking of going backwards to revision 4.
The next issue is their lack of support. They claim as an upgrader I get 18 months of support, but I have to have a code and cannot figure-out how to get it. You can't call them, you are blocked by answering machines, demanding the code.
What a pain in the butt.

Petition to lower upgrade price! - Version: 5.0, 11/13/2009 04:39AM PST

If you think the $50 upgrade price is far too much for this product, please sign the petition linked below. Also, please spread the word! Parallels may consider lowering the upgrade price if they see people aren't willing to pay $50 each time there's a new release. It may also show them that we're thinking of switching to their competitor(s) who offer better pricing for upgrades.

It is not very enthusiastic.
Both the high cost and this review reinforces my decision to stay with v.4.
