Question Parallels on Mac - any Windows 7 users

I currently run XP under Parallels as it works and is very effective.

It is worth upgrading directly to Windows 7?

I'm running parallels 7 on lion with a win 7 pro vm. My other half remotes into her office's juniper network using it.

Is it worth upgrading? It's definitely rock solid and performant, but whether you need to upgrade I wouldn't know.

Yes - had Win XP but had to bin it as the HD was getting taken up by an ever-expanding VM!

Put Win 7 on yesterday and all's good so far

I opted for a 'lite' stripped back version and the OS is installed within 2 GB !!
