    Anyone using Parallels for Mac on a Macbook (not a Macbook Pro)? Any reason it shouldn't run adequately or any problems anyone has experienced with this combination? Any issues with the lack of a dedicated graphics chip/graphics memory?
    Thanks,
    Pete

    I installed it last night on my Wife's new MacBook (1.83GHz/1Gig) running Windows 2000 Pro. The only problems I had were due to some permissions issues because I installed it and set up the VM as a different user. It ran fine, though all I did was run updates and install Office. Those all went faster than I expected though.

    There was some slowness in the screen redraw, especially when running in a window. Full screen seemed better. I also had some things running in OS X at the time too. Sound and Video in a wmv movie trailer was fine.

    Running it on a 2GHz MB(not P). Works like a charm so far.
