Looks like vmware 8 will be announced later this summer, I'll be keeping a close eye on it.

From a quick glance, the competitor parallels 11 doesn't support directX11.

As an owner of a vmware 3, 4 and 5 license, having skipped vmware 6 + 7 because the features were mostly limited to "its x% faster" and "y% less battery" and more of that ( yeah right ) I actually do make statements about my future plan: If vmware 8 supports directX11 and OpenGL > 3.3 ( preferably 4) I will buy - and no-buy if it doesn't ^^.

I do have to admit I'm kind of curious curious how many % faster the marketing department is going to make vmware 8 - and who knows, maybe that version will increase battery life beyond the actual capacity of the battery too :smileydevil:
