I have a base, clean XP SP2 install with VS and SQL as a backup, and then I have the working hard drive file that I use day to day. Which also brings up another nice thing - creating backup disk images is as easy as copying your virtual hard disk file. without ever leaving the comfort of my laptop (and without having to multi-boot) is. As a web developer, being able to natively fire up IE on XP/OSX, FF on XP/OSX/Linux, Konqueror, Safari, etc. Supposeduly this might be fixed in the future, but at the moment, it is my only source of irritation with this setup.Īside from the external monitor performance issue (annoying, but acceptable) it is a perfect setup and I couldn't really be happier.įorgot to mention - the other great thing is that I also have a couple of different flavors of Linux installed as separate guest OSes.
My understanding is that it's basically buffering the graphics in memory - I'm not sure of the technical details, but they can't currently "virtualize" to the graphics card like they can to the processor. However, when attaching a larger external monitor (I bought a Cinema Display to go with it) you start to get more noticeable redrawing and refresh lagging the larger the resolution is (this only affects the guest OS - OSX is not affected). If you just run off the MBPro monitor, that is not a problem. The guest graphics under Parallels is not accelerated. I upgraded to 2Gb last month, so now I run XP with about 1.4Gb memory and 600Mb for OSX, and everything runs great! Same thing when pausing iTunes or something - noticeable lag in responsiveness. For example, switching from XP to the OSX dock, there would be a noticeable pause before the icons began to move. So I had to give XP a decent chunk, but that left OSX a bit anemic at times when I would switch back and forth.
I started with 1Gb of memory, but in Parallels you have to statically size your "guest" OS memory. I ditched my old Dell about 4 months ago (since Beta 5 or so of Parallels) and have not looked back. I'm also running VS and SQL 2005, Adobe suite, etc. And if you have any experience with OS X, you know more memory = a good thing! Well, I'd say chances are pretty good that he has the 2 GHz or higher model since the "slower" ones weren't around very long. What kind of spec are you running? Been wanting to get myself a new MacBook (got an ibook, very cool machine - shame it can't run Visual Studio) but my girlfriend isn't happy with the idea of me buying yet another machine. I highly recommend the setup.Īlso, with Parallels' full-screen support, it's awesome to be able to stick the laptop next to my LCD panel, plug in a few USB cables (keyboard/mouse/whatever) and have access to OS X on the laptop screen and Windows XP on the LCD screen with a single keyboard/mouse.
In fact, running within Parallels on the MacBook Pro is faster than running on a year-old PC laptop I used to use. Everything works beautifully - no speed issues whatsoever. Within the virtual PC, I run Windows XP, Visual Studio 2003/2005, IIS, SQL Server 2000/2005 and various other apps.
After downloading install VS Code editor on your operating system.ģ.I've been using Parallels on a MacBook Pro for about a month and it's fantastic.
The first step is to download latest Stable version of Visual Studio Code editor from their website. Contents in this project Setup React Native Environment in Visual Studio Code Editor in Windows MAC Linux Tutorial:ġ.
