Ended up using a PC at work to the things necessary due to the VPC being pretty poor.

VMWare seems to be coming out on top over Parrallels.


I'll be moving to VM or Parrallels in a few weeks.
Yeah, the Parralels updates constantly breaking the Library Tools is pissing me off.

VM has a ton of pre built appliances available for download.

Needed to eval an application running on a Linux variant that I don't have installed anywhere, plus would have needed the LAMP stack. Would have wasted the better part of the day.

Downloaded the appropriate appliance and was testing in 30 minutes.

Cool stuff.
