![]() ![]() Parallels Transporter for App Store is all new! Use your Windows documents, pictures, music, downloads, and Internet bookmarks on your Mac without installing Windows. Only Parallels includes accelerated 3D graphics in Linux virtual machines, so if you need that, you’ll need to use Parallels. ![]() VMWare Fusion - Fusion is the Mac virtualization app offered by VMWare (a long time leader in virtualization technology.) Fusion supports the installation of many different operating systems including Windows, Linux, and the Mac OS. Parallels supports a wide range of guest OSs including Windows, Linux, and Mac.

I must say Windows 10 is very nice and simple to use after decades of hating Windows with a passion I actually enjoy using it, albeit only on a Mac and my Mac Pro cylinder runs Steam and the likes of GTA V very well indeed.
