    Question:
    I am using MAC OS 10.6.4 on the latest MACBook Pro.
    I am planning to buy Parallels 6 for MAC.
    I also am planning to buy Microsoft Windows XP home Edition N.
    (Edition N was released specifically for European union countries)
    (I am also assuming that i can use the N edition in U.S.A here).

    The XP cd that i am going to buy from online store says it's OEM .
    Here is the third party site from where i am planning to buy the CD.

    I want to know, if Parallels 6 will work with this XP Home N edition
    on my MAC 10.6?

    Anyone has used it before and any experiences or feedback?

    I called Parallels support, but they didn't sound convincing. The answer
    i got from them was that it may or may not work sometimes, if it's OEM.
    (But i think what they think OEM is a pre-installed CD on my computer,
    which hopefully is not the case with the CD i am going to buy online).

    Any advice is appreciated as i am looking to buy the windows XP and Parallels
    asap.
    Thanks.
