Once again, this thread is for FreeBSD host support. Can Tim or anyone else from Parallels please give a status update on using FreeBSD as primary OS? Seeing as you already support Mac, I can't imagine that porting it to FreeBSD (or any other BSD for that matter) is significantly difficult. I'm currently in a position to purchase multiple licenses for a VM product, but it must run on a FreeBSD host. Thanks.
Still no word? It's been nearly a year and a half since "it was being considered". I guess they stopped considering it. Time to take our money elsewhere I guess...maybe VMware will provide a FreeBSD guest version?
Maybe in 2008 ? This thread has been running for almost 2 years now and there still is no news on the state of FreeBSD as a Parallels host OS. Are there any developments ?
With 6.2 the only problem I have is the audio that doesn't work. Anybody tried with the new 7.0 release of fBSD? thank and regards Salvo

There is no development on porting Parallels to *BSD. I don't think there will be BSD primary OS support in 2008.
And same if you build a COBOL API. Parallels needs to see a large enough market for it; I do not suspect FreeBSD has a large enough market. RHEL, Windows, and CentOS seem to make up a good deal of the market and OS X Virtulization will be a niche point.
