RENTON, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Parallels today announced the launch of Parallels Server for Mac 4.0 Mac mini Edition (www.parallels.com/macmini), a new edition of its one-of-a-kind Mac server virtualization solution optimized for Mac minis running Mac OS X server software. Parallels Server for Mac 4.0 Mac mini Edition lets businesses turn an Apple Mac mini server running Mac OS X Server into a multi-purpose platform capable of running Mac OS X, Microsoft Windows and Linux operating systems and their applications side by side. Tailored specifically for small businesses that need to consolidate a few servers, Parallels makes it simple to provide mission-critical software on a cost-effective Mac mini.
“Businesses are increasingly taking advantage of the Mac mini as an affordable alternative to traditional servers. Smart organizations can get even more performance and savings from their Mac mini server by using Parallels Server for Mac 4.0 Mac mini Edition to run multiple operating systems and applications on the same box,” said Kim Johnston, Vice President of Marketing at Parallels. “Businesses can reduce their need for different hardware platforms, saving space, power and administration time, while easily adding new services without the need to increase the budget for additional hardware purchases.”
“Our business has used a Mac mini as a primary server for a few years, but we also had to run a separate Windows server for applications such as Microsoft Exchange and SharePoint. Thanks to Parallels Server for Mac 4.0 Mac mini Edition, we consolidated everything onto our Mac mini and saved money, space and time. One of our favorite features is remote administration of the Parallels Management Console for easy deployment and backing up of virtual machines,” said Bruce Rubin, owner and developer of Radical Design Software and Oribus.

Parallels on Tuesday unveiled Parallels Desktop for Mac 4.0, the next major version of the company’s virtualization platform for Intel-based Macs. The new version introduces over 50 features and enhancements, including the ability to run Leopard Server in a virtual machine.
Improvements in the new version include speed boosts that the company says are up to 50 percent faster than the previous version of Parallels. In fact, making the application faster was one of the most requested features from its users and something the company focused a significant amount of time doing.
New features like the Adaptive Hypervisor allow Parallels to intelligently load balance the processes between the Mac OS and Virtual Machine. The virtualization engine itself has also been reworked to consume 15-30 percent less resources than it did before.
Graphics performance has been improved with added support for support for DirectX 9, DirectX Pixel Shader 2.0 and OpenGL 2.0.
Further improving the speed of Parallels, users can now dedicate eight CPUs and 8GB RAM to each virtual machine. Of course, the amount of resources that you can give to each virtual machine depends on the amount of physical resources you have available.
Parallel Software For Mac
A new viewing mode called Modality allows users to set the transparency of the guest operating system, so you can view the activity of a virtual machine while in the background. Coherence has been updated as well. Now when you switch to Coherence, the Windows taskbar items move to the Mac’s menubar, so you always have access to them.

Virtual machines can now be started in Safe Mode. Everything will run exactly the same as it would if you started the machine normally except the changes you make while running in Safe Mode are not saved. This is handy if you are running beta software and something goes wrong. If everything worked okay, you do have the option of saving the changes when you stop the virtual machine and exit Safe Mode.
Parallels Desktop 4.0 for Mac is available immediately and costs $79.99. Current Parallels Desktop users can upgrade their existing software for $39.99. Users that purchased version 3.0 on or after September 1, 2008, qualify for a free upgrade to version 4.0.
