    Is 64 bit Vista fully supported by Parallels with this latest build?

    No, 64-bit guest systems are not supported.

    For one thing, you need OSX to be 64 bit. That should come when Leopard is generally available.

    Thanks for the quick reply. Does that mean it depends on the host operating system? Once that is 64bit (Leopard), also Parallels will upgrade shortly afterwards?

    Just read the announcement of VMware. Surprisingly, it already supports 64bit Vista applications. So I don't understand why Parallels does not. Can't be an Intel or Tiger problem.
