Parallels Desktop is a Virtual Machine, meaning software that acts like a basic configuration of PC hardware to run a broad range of Operating Systems on. The software shares system resources including system memory, graphics, and hard disk drive space. A key advantage of a Virtual Machine (VM) is that users do not need to reboot their Mac to run Windows, so you can run many Windows-based applications simultaneously. Ideal for Productivity-based Applications Parallels Desktop is great for running Microsoft Office applications, browsing sites that require Microsoft Internet Explorer, or general purpose Windows use. Users can run any Windows version back to Windows 95 and even Linux or old versions of MS-DOS! Virtual Machines are excellent for running legacy software.
