Parallels Inc. has announced a special offer on its powerful virtualization software for OS X users slashing $10 (€8) off Parallels Desktop for Mac.
For a limited time, Parallels Desktop 8 for Mac is available $10 / €8 off. The software normally sells for US$79.99 / (€60).
For those who aren’t very familiar with the software, Parallels Desktop for Mac is a virtualization solution that enables users to run Windows (and other operating systems) in a virtual environment on top of their existing OS X installation.
The two environments can communicate with each other. For example, users can copy and paste or drag and drop items from one OS to the other.
Parallels also markets a mobile app that works with Parallels Desktop 8 to let Mac users access their desktop computer remotely, in essence putting Windows software on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch devices. The mobile app hasn’t been discounted.
