Does anyone here use Parallels?

[Stinky The Clown]

I have a Windows "machine" on my MacPro. It is now running Win7 under Parallels 6. I also upgraded an older Parallels Vista machine to Win7.

I want to rename the former Vista machine. Right now it is named "Vista1" ( I am SOOOOO creative). I want to name it something to indicate it is now a Win7 machine. Do i just name the file that is actually the "machine" or do I need to do something else?

1. I had problems when I tried to rename my Paralells virtual machine

I don't recommend it.

2. Maybe that's why there's not one single reference to it when I google search.

Its really an anal retentive thing with me. It bothers me that it is named Vista! and has Win 7 on it.

I tried parallels and quit using it.

4. I have used both Parallels and VMWare Fusion

About the same. As a company, we settled on Parallels.

Parallels and Win7 has allowed us to run AutoDesk's Revit, which is a resource hog 3D CAD program. It runs faster on our MacPros with Parallels than it does on some Windows machines.
