Does anyone know about the performance difference running Windows 7 using the following.
1. Parallels
2. Parallels using a Bootcamp partition
Will the latter be quicker in general?
This may be a foolish question.

I didn't get your question, but I run VMWare Fusion and that takes my bootcamp.
There's a Parallels page that describes how to do so.
Normally the way to do this is to use seperate hardware profiles .

I'm curious for all your Mac users out there which virtualization software you use and why? I've been a VM Ware user for Windows for years and have been running Parallels on my Mac (mainly because VM Ware was in Beta when I got Parallels).

Just bought a 2.4GHz Intel Core 2 Duo iMac with 2GB of memory and a 320GB hard drive. I plan on doing some .net development on it using a BootCamp/VMWare combo since VMWare grants access to the bootcamp partition.
