Any Mac people tried either of these yet, getting a Pro in the next week or 2 but i still need access to networking tools that run on Win,

Ive read a few reviews on both, they both have there pro's and cons, but would be good to hear from anyone that uses either?

firstly, pro

Parallels is regarded as the better one, but as you said, both have their plus points. Either way you get the same thing ultimately

Personally VM, but both do near enough the same. And is that a Mac Pro or Macbook?

I use Parallels on my Air so that I can run WinSCP

Seems to do the job well enough and it's pretty smart how Windows software appears to be running on the OS X desktop.
