Interesting thing in the google license for Parallels (and google docs and pretty much everything…)

… A permanent license to all the stuff I create while using thier browser?… Sounds like not much fun to me. Hope JK and KC aren’t writing any posts using it!

Instead of upgrading to Vista I’d wait until Microsoft ships Project Mojave.

Hi James. I see that you are using Vista in Parallels … Would you recommend upgrading from XP to Vista?? I upgrade the memory in my MacBook Pro from 2 to 4 but I still don’t have dare to take the risk …

Jonmul, I haven’t been playing with it long enough to know if Gears works as advertised. The two icons in my dock are Twirl (Twitter client), left, and Machines of War (game) on the right. Just left of Transmit of course.

James – do Gears enabled web also work ok through Parallels?

On an unrelated note, what are the two icons in your dock to the left of Transmit?

Thanks!

Tax Man, I just reinstalled Parallels yesterday after a lengthy hiatus with it but I’ll watch out for that.

And it also works fine under Fusion….

James, do you ever have a problem in Parallels Coherence mode that it won’t bring your Windows programs to the front? I’m having trouble using my words here, but I can’t always get coherence mode to work well.
