Great software. If the upgrade is actually free then I would jump on this if I didn't already own a copy.

Out of curiosity I just checked on the shipping. It seems that MacMall has added a USPS shipping option. If you go that route ... and I did *not* actually order it so I can't be sure you can use this shipping option ... then shipping would only be $6.
Wow. Another $3 off. Be still my heart.
One other FWIW, note that this $10 rebate is from MacMall, not the software vendor. That might matter to some.

So...if Macs are the best, why do they need VMWare to have Windows in it? Macs can't live w/o Windows and Windows do fine w/o Macs.
Admit it, PC owns Macs. WOOT!!

"Unity mode allows you to run Windows applications" My $300 netbook does this without needing a $30 software app.

I use it primarily to run one Windows app, NewsBin Pro.
