Parallels is the same, isn’t it? It’s not a partition, it’s a file. One file
(with subfiles) and a program to run it.

But I think this is comparing apples and oranges. Parallels (Harry) requires an
entire partition devoted to Windows 7 (or whatever version), whereas Fred,
using Boxer, is (if I understand correctly) running DOS on a virtual machine
inside OS X.

Under Parallels, it's even better, and there's no real "price to pay."
