I only had one redraw problem, when setting the cursor to "none". 
Everything else works fine. I did buy the newer 3.0 update but haven't 
had time to install it yet, so it may be fixed by now.

I haven't had any problems with externals at all, even with my older 
copy of Parallels. Everything I've thrown at it has worked so far. One 
of my projects uses libURL extensively without any trouble. Haven't 
tried RevBrowser yet, but I don't see why it wouldn't work.

I haven't ever tried VMWare.
