Parallels 4.0 to VMWare Fusion 2.0.1

Is it possible to import a VM created in Parallels 4.0 to Fusion? When I choose the Import command, I can't seem to choose the VM created by Parallels 4.0.

TIA.

It is possible, but not directly. You need to install VMWare's Converter app on the guest OS, run it, and then import the converted VM into Fusion. I made the switch from Parallels v4 to Fusion last week and did this successfully.

Had you first searched the Forum or read the VMware Fusion 2 Release Notes - Know Issues you would have found the answer.
