    Just a thought, but considering how badly the Parallels download servers get hit on every new version, how about hosting it as a torrent. At least that way users can choose to share some of the load and make the download much quicker for other users trying to get the file!

    Also, how about a couple of mailing lists - one for production releases and one for betas? Yes, I know you can enable automatic updates, but this doesn't catch beta releases and it won't notify you for (up to) days after a release.

    Creating a mailing list could be as simple as a 'locked' thread that you update whenever there's a new release, to which forum users could subscribe.

    Thanks for listening...
