So Parallels 3.0 has continued to frustrate me. I can forgive the XNA thing - seems just as likely to be Microsoft’s fault. I filed a bug (or is it ‘participated’ in a ‘connection’?) on the atrocious Connect site, which you can vote up if you like… a few people have come here from Google with seemingly the same problem.
It’s not even that ActiveSync still doesn’t work, removing the only other reason I really had to buy the upgrade. It’s three things, really:
- My virtual machines occasionally take about a minute to resume.
- Tonight, Parallels decided to start corrupting my Windows XP disk image, leaving me with recursive bluescreen fun.
- I can’t even repair it, because I can’t work out how to make my install disc image bootable.
So it’s been disappointing. Probably nobody’s fault, but I really feel like going back to 2.5. Or trying VMWare and not having my fans on the whole time even if the VM’s idle etc etc. Grr.
