I have a MacBook Pro 13' Retina Model 2015. Change pdf page size. In two weeks my computerscience (here we say informatik) study begin. So I want to install Windows 10 via Bootcamp. I have tested Parallels Desktop 10 and i didnt like it. There is way to much stuff which is enabled and too many settings i can adjust.

I only want a Screen in which i have my Bootcamp Windows 10 running virtually. I know you can integrate and seperate the Windows installation. What do you guys think/use?

Prarallels oder VMware? If you find Parallels to have too many adjustable settings, VMWare Fusion definitely isn't for you, Parallels beats VMWare in terms of user-friendliness.

Thanks to the common VMware platform, VMs can be easily transferred from the vSphere data center to the Mac desktop and then run in Fusion. Develop and Test for Any Platform Fusion makes it simple to test nearly any OS and app on a Mac.

But honestly, if you're going for computer science, that really shouldn't be a hurdle. VMWare beats Parallels in stability and you can create VMWare VM's in Fusion, which you can then also run on a Windows or Linux PC for free using VMWare Player, or on a VMWare ESXi server. Both can virtualise your Boot Camp install, though in both cases Win10 will probably nag about activation because it sees 'different' hardware than when running in native boot camp mode. I used Parallels from version 9 to 11. Overall performance is good, and it's very user-friendly, but the improvements from 10 to 11 were too minute to really justify the upgrade fee and several functions were removed or missing, so I decided to try VMWare Fusion 8 (Pro) after seeing impressive benchmark scores. I ended up buying a pro license because then I can also use Fusion to control my VMWare ESXi machine.

Hey, sorry for the delay, I was away for a bit. Yes, I own the entirety of the VMware Fusion and Workstation businesses, so I decide the pricing, packaging, new features, and I manage the day-to-day marketing activities. So, to answer your questions: 1) We respect the user's last-open-window-placement and open to that.

If you have the library up when you quit Fusion, it will come up in the same window location as when you quit. 2) Absolutely =) What would you say are your key must-have features to make this better?

We'll probably never get parity, but we are shooting for the 85% use-case sort of functionality. 3) Loaded question! The same could be asked about why Tesla's are so expensive?

Why are houses in San Francisco so expensive? I personally would love to just give it away for free every year or open source it, but we would have a hard time getting investment and paying our devs;) Exec management in any software company needs to see growth, otherwise resources are deferred to other projects.

While we can't open source it because the hypervisor code is VMware IP, (and it's just never going to be opened up), that's why we introduced AppCatalyst (getappcatalyst.com), which is free and designed to run headless and be controlled via CLI or API (Swagger based REST API, jazzy!). It makes a great replacement to VirtualBox for workflows involving Vagrant and Docker. (native support for both out of the box) Hope that sheds some light here!
