Desktop Pipeline reports

Parallels Inc. on Tuesday said it has started selling its software for running Windows on Apple Computer Inc.’s Intel Macs at major retailers.
The Herndon, Va., company’s Desktop for Mac virtualization software will be sold at Apple’s retail stores across the nation, as well as CompUSA, Staples, Office Depot, Fry’s Electronics and Amazon.com. The software will be rolled out to retailers through next month.

The software enables Mac users to simultaneously run Windows XP, as well as applications built for the OS, in isolated “virtual machines” that run alongside OS X, Parallels said.
