I think Parallels is decent - about on par with VMWare, but honestly I haven't
used it much beyond running my BBS in it (with Windows 2000).  It seems to work
well though.

One thing I've noticed is that my BBS seems a little slower running in
Parallels than it was on my main desktop PC using VMWare, but there definitely
may be other factors causing that (different hardware, including a slower CPU,
and different host OS).
