Got snow leo installed and wanted to see which virtual app was better to use for windows either

Fission or
parallels?

Is one easier to use and set up, or what would the differences be?

I will be using xp as I do not like windows 7 or vista, windows 7 is too much like vista to me and I like xp

any comparrisons between the virtual machines?

Please do not mention virtual box as I dont care about !
specifically fission and or parallels?


Thanks!
I could also install both as well correct
 
It's called VMWare Fusion, as we all know fusion is the source of tomorrow's energy, not that dirty fission. ;)

Have a look at these threads:

According to this article, the current version of Parallels Desktop 5 is speedier than VMWare Fusion 3.

And I thought you meant Saturday Night Live with "Snl", SL is the common abbreviation for Snow Leopard, or 10.6.
