In terms of VMware, in my case I use the host machine (Mac OS 10.5) far more than any of the virtual machines (Ubuntu and XP); and on my dual-booting systems I use Ubuntu more than XP. Now having used both virtual and parallel booting systems, I think my inclination is for parallel ones. Especially in the case of the ones on my Mac, the situation with conflicting shortcuts gets seriously confusing after a while. Plus I like being able to take full advantage of the system resources rather than adding the extra bloat of running two operating systems at one time. But that's just me :) Cheers, Mike I’ll be interested in hearing whether you end up using one OS more than the others.
