Thanks Rick, I didn't know you could do that. I thought they would all  
require their own Windows install. I've got 4 GB RAM so no problem  
there. All I need to decide really is, do I need to have OS X running  
when I'm running Windows, or do I just want to keep the two OS's  
separate.
The last time I saw parallels running on a 10.4 machine, it was in  
Coherence mode and had a horrible Windows Taskbar sitting across the  
top of the Dock. It put me off a bit.
