I've used both. I actually preferred Parallels, but I ran into some nagging 
bugs that I couldn't get their customer service people to help me with. I 
switched to VMware, which didn't have those bugs (presumably it has others), 
and it has worked perfectly. I was astonished to discover that VMware could 
use the virtual machine files that were created and left behind by Parallels.

I find that using a Windows system on a Mac is not a compromise or a kludge 
or a workaround. It's real, it works well, and it's perfectly OK to plan on 
using it in the long term. That surprised me, as I expected it to be all of 
those things (compromise, kludge, workaround).
