Parallels Desktop 3.0 on the way

by Brad Linder on June 1, 2007 at 05:00 PM

Parallels Desktop 3.0 is due out in a few weeks, with over 50 new features. But some features are cooler than others, so here are a few of the good ones:

3D graphics - play Windows OpenGL and DirectX games on a Mac without shutting down OS X
SmartSelect - set file types to open with your preferred applications on any platform
Snapshot - back up or restore your virtual machine

A full copy of Parallels Desktop 3.0 will set you back $80, but current users can upgrade for $50. If you preorder, you can save a few bucks get get your upgrade for $40.

Wow...maybe it's because of all the media attention about the National Spelling Bee, but lately I've been noticing a lot of spelling mistakes. In this case, in the article heading you misspelled Desktop with "Dekstop" and second-last sentence in the article:

"A full copy of Parallels Dekstop 3.0 will..."

At least you didn't misspell it the third time you said desktop lol.
