You may not be a Windows user switching to the Mac, but you might know someone who is. Maybe you bought a Mac to run Windows programs on it, and you want to bring those programs to the Mac. The new Parallels Switch to Mac Edition is for you, in either case. Parallels is the virtualization program that makes it easy to run Windows on any Intel Mac. You can run Windows programs in a window or full screen, it’s up to you.
The Switch to Mac Edition is designed for those with a working Windows PC who want to duplicate it on the Mac. The software will migrate all files, music, photos and programs on a PC to a Mac, over an included USB cable. It sounds like a simple matter of physically connecting the two computers with the Parallels USB Transfer cable, launching Parallels on both, and hitting a few buttons on the screen. Now that’s an easy switch scenario.
