Other improvements include better support for Windows 8, support for USB 3.0 devices in virtual machines, and the ability to use IMG disc images as virtual machine CD/DVDs. There are also improvements with running several distributions of Linux in virtual machines.

The retail price of Parallels Desktop 7 for Mac is $80; a student edition is available for $40. The Parallels Mobile app is available in the iOS App Store at a special price of $5 for a limited time; the standard retail price is $20. If you've tried the new versions of Parallels Desktop or Mobile
