[tech] Parallels or fusion?

Maybe someone can help me out. I just ordered a macbook pro
and want to run virtualization software. I heard Vmware
fusion runs faster. I would assume you couldn't run protools
on either though, is this true?

yeah I would run boot camp for the intensive stuff but for
other things virtualization is the way to go, I just don't
which one to get.

i prefer Fusion

i would also say to go with Fusion because VMware has years
upon years of virtualization experience

but that's just my opinion.

I've been using parallels for a while now, and have been
thinking of switching over to fusion. parallels lately seem
to have been focussing on more and more functionality,
neglecting efficiency and bugs. every update adds more
functionality, but things also seem to run less and less
smooth.
the only reason not to switch is the activation hassle with
reinstalling XP.
It looks like fusion is the better deal (still haven't tried
it though!).
