    Question VCDS on Mac

    I was wondering if anyone uses VCDS on their Macs using Parallels? I know it can work on bootcamp but parallels seems to offer more options and I'm looking at buying VCDS hopefully within the next coming month.

    I use VMware fusion, but same idea. Running inside a VM works fine for me.

    It should not matter how you access Windows as long as Windows functions. Parallels is great by the way, can run Windows as an os and app at the same time, little processer heavy
