I fought with it all day... with the VT-x hardware support it crashes
the whole parallels emulator...

However just turn that off and you still get a really very fast
emulated plan 9 system that works well.

This is only beta too, can't fullscreen yet but I think this
virtualization software will definitely be worth the 50 bucks.

Also, they are reporting @ parallels that the intel mac mini has the
VT-x hardware disabled in firmware for some reason right now.  It
could be a bug on Apple's side though.  I think people are looking
into it.

This is way faster than Q or QEmu by the way.
