If you or your employees prefer working on
the Apple Mac platform, but need to use Windows applications such
as Autodesk Design Suite in your CAD workflow, Parallels could be
what you need.
Parallels
Desktop 7 for Mac lets you run Windows and Mac applications
side-by-side, with support for the latest Mac operating system, OS
X 10.7 Lion. There are also over 90 new and enhanced features to
streamline your use of Windows applications on a Mac, including
support for iPhone and iPad, 7.1 surround sound and up to 1GB video

What is Parallels Desktop for Mac?
If you can't bear to leave your Mac OS, Parallels Desktop 7 is
here to save you. Parallels Desktop allows you to run Windows on
your Mac without rebooting in Bootcamp. Alternatively, if you're
new to Mac, you can continue using the familiar WIndows background
and Start menu. Either way, you can run Windows and Mac
applications side-by-side with no compromises in performance.
What's new in Parallels Desktop 7?
Mac OS X 10.7 Lion support. Use Lion
features including Launchpad and Mission Control with Windows
applications, and even run Lion as a guest operating system when
you have Lion as a host.
Parallels Mobile. Take control of
your Mac OS and Windows applications when on the go with support
for iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch. You can cut and paste between
applications and enjoy audio while viewing Flash videos.

graphically intensive applications at speeds up to 45% faster than
previous versions, with up to 1GB video memory.
