Hello, I think Parallel 4.0 is much easier!
In fact when I have tried to run VMware 2.0.3.x into my Apple MacBook Air, I had first problems with the installation since under OSX 10.5.6 the virtual machine setting workflow was not so simple to set it up!
Than, and worse, when I was able to tell the system to which drive to load my Windows XP CD, VMware stopped the installation because it found an error. This problem has been properly identify and solved on this link: http://www.techhead.co.uk/vmware-esx-creating-a-windows-xp-vm-and-getting-error-setup-did-not-find-any-hard-disk-drives-installed-in-your-computer
But as you can see you need to be a software nerve to fix it! VMware? No thanks!!!
VMware Fusion
Run windows & other x86 systems side-by-side with os x.

Never had any problems with VMWare Fusion. You sure your problems aren't rooted in something besides VMWare Fusion (e.g. you, your hardware, XP, etc.)?Friday, April 10 2009 @ 12:47 PM PDT

> I think Parallel 4.0 is much easier!Unfortunately not - I've bought Parallels Desktop 3 which works great and tried Parallels 4. Since 4 months (!!) I haven't been able to install Parallels 4 and even Parallels' support didn't help. Have a look in their forums - it looks like a very unhappy beta testing community.
