I second the fact that switching to Mac is a good idea. Then make sure you shut it down before you tell her she can have it. IE tell your wife, "I'm using the Windows environment!".
lock file that will tell you if the other computer is using the VM. IE each instance of parallels on your two computers would be trying to look at the VMs stored in the network share. Now you can put the VM on a network drive and as long as only one of you opens it at a time you could "share" it that way. Each mac technically needs a new license of parallels to work. (There is much written about how bootcamp works.) In the meantime, although I vastly prefer VM to bootcamp, you may want to run your Windows apps in a bootcamped partition. In that amount of time, I expect that all kinds of patches to reconcile these incompatibilities will have been released - by Apple as well as the VM people.
This is one reason I don't plan on updating to Leopard for another few months, at least. So you should be prepared for some considerable post-install tweaking. This is not an uncommon situation with significant new OSes or updates. But remember, Leopard is just released and what worked well in the previous Mac OS (Tiger) may not in Leopard. But before you install Parallels (or any other VM application) in a Leopard environment, I strongly suggest you review some of the posts elsewhere in this form about issues people are having, before you take that plunge. I did it some eyars back and have never regretted it. Click to expand.Swithing to macs is a very wise decision, for many reasons.
