Will there be a OS X version discount if I buy the Windows version?

    The subject pretty much says it all. I don't have an Intel Mac yet but I plan on getting one within the next several months. In the meantime, I downloaded and installed the Windows trial version to get a feel for how good Parallel's VM technology is. So far, I am satisfied with its features and performance. I am a longtime VMWare user and the only three VMWare features that appear to be missing in Parallels are:

    1. NAT support
    2. Drag and drop from a Windows host into a Windows VM to copy a file
    3. SCSI support

    The one feature in Parallels that is currently not available in VMWare Workstation that I think will be really cool is the disk imaging tool. I have not tried it yet but I am looking forward to doing so. I am going to image my data and apps drive and use it from my Parallels Windows XP VM.
