What do I get if I upgrade to 3.0?

Hi,

I bought Parallels Desktop for Mac pretty much when it first came out; the about box currently says "Build 3214 (June 21, 2007)", so I'm assuming I have version "1.0".

What do I get if I upgrade to 3.0? Will it be faster and more stable, or should I just read through the list of features? Just wondering if it's worth the $49 to upgrade.

Also, will I be able to use my existing Windows images if I upgrade? I wouldn't want to have to recreate them.

Any info or opinions is useful, thanks!

You have version 2.5.

There is going to be a new version (4) in a couple off weeks. So i should wait untill new version is out.

Greetings

 

You can use version 3224 it is also 2.5 but is working on Leopard

old images are compatible

 

Thanks for the help. I'm still interested in what new features (or stability) I'll get if I upgrade to 3.0 (or wait for 4.0). Any info?

 

I guess you need to wait a bit when features for ver 4 will be announced (not sure for ETA, maybe in a month)
