It works quite nicely, graphics and networking are both working. The only things that tripped me up were I had to delete the IDE emulating hard disk image and create a SCSI emulating before installation and choose xga instead of the usual vesa for the screen. I have had parallels working on several occasions in the past but a recent attempt to get it working again failed. I couldn't even get it to boot the installer.
