    Does anyone know if Parallels 11 will still have the same licensing? I really like the new features but I don't like the fact that I need 1 license per Mac as an home user. I know that my Parallels 9 will not run on El Capitan and I have 4 Macs in my family. I can't see $200 for licensing for Parallels, no matter how good it is, when $50 will get me licensing from the "other guys" for all computers in my home. I can't believe that I am the only one that is having this struggle

    Thanks,
    Michael

    Especially when it's a yearly fee, this is getting crazy if that's the truth!

    AND when they're taking features AWAY from the desktop version. They're asking us to pay more, more often, and we get less? Yeah, no thanks.
    It sounds to me like Parallels actually wants to scare off their desktop customers and move closer to a business-only approach, like VMWare... However, my VMWare Workstation upgrades consistently add features, and never take them away.

    At the very least the Parallels 11 license should allow usage on one primary and a secondary, like a desktop and a laptop. Even Microsoft allows this.

    Ridiculous.
