Default Re: PartyPoker native Mac client

How is it in general running Parallels for online poker? I toyed with the idea of getting a MBP awhile ago, but I ultimately wimped out because I wasn't sure how well it would work. In the past, when I've used other VM software (for Windows on Linux, or vice versa), audio was a problem--in those cases, the sound apparently wasn't getting re-routed out to the host machine. No sound is obviously a big minus for online poker, so I gave it a pass and ultimately got a ThinkPad.

From what I found out later on, Parallels does re-route sound, so I guess I would have come out OK after all. Maybe I'll go get myself an early Xmas gift, if I keep building my stack up....

Are you happy with the whole MacBook/Parallels combo, both for poker, and for general use? Thanks...
