In contrast to Microsoft’s XPM-VM, Parallels now announced they will support seemless Windows XP virtualization on CPU’s that don’t have extended VM commands like AMD-V or Intel-VT.

Parallels’ features in a nutshell:

3D graphic support
USB compatibility
Parallels Transporter to migrate applications to Windows 7
no CPU with VM commands required
seemless integration in Windows 7 – no Windows XP desktop
applications seem to run directly in Windows 7
